Hey, where have you been?
I just wanna apologize for my mistakes
Lemme say sorry again
For what I said, what I did, and for what you felt
I want to be with you again
I don't expect your forgiveness
But I expect that you've been happy
Even with another man
I wanted to hug you again
I needed to kiss you again
But you wouldn't understand
Why did I keep going back then?
And now I'll be gone... yeah... now I'm gone
(Pictures of you at home
Memories I wish weren't my own
The cold bed where you slept on
The sofa where you won't be no more
All the love letters you wrote
Every song we composed
Anything that I had stored
They are all just GONE
How did we end up like this?
You hating me, me loving you
Me saving you, you killing me
How could this affect you?
Maybe if you wouldn't have been selfish
And maybe let the love flourish
As I had tried to say so
You wouldn't have been GONE)
But those times are up
No more "I love you too"
We should let each other go
No reason to still be hurt
Throw those demons outta the window
Cuz maybe they will try to stay
You shouldn't let them
Maybe someday you'll understand
I left the place where we met
As I did everything went grey
All of a sudden it started to rain
All the happiness started fading away
But why would I care?
I mean, I shouldn't be falling again
I thought I overcame the sadness
I know you have already left
But those memories won't fade away
What is this sadness I can't stand?
I'm sad, down that hole again
Oh, I see it's you again
Why can't you be GONE? BE GONE!
(Pictures of you at home
Memories I wish weren't my own

You hating me, me loving you
Me saving you, you killing me

Maybe if you wouldn't have been selfish
And maybe let the love flourish
As I had tried to say so
You wouldn't have been GONE)
I'm sorry I'm feeling like this
When I shouldn't be...
I'll keep trying to save what I need
And, that is you, don't you see?
I still love you, but I don't know why
I've kept you protected inside my mind
Would you be mine?
Or will you be gone again?
