To see the one I love in another's arms,
You don't know how much it hurt.
I want to curl up and cry but I'm too scared,
Because if I do, I might just breakdown altogether.
Every night, the same scene replays itself in my dreams.
I'm too frightened to even sleep now, thanks to you.
I trusted you, with everything, but it turns out you didn't trust me.
Because you betrayed me, despite our friendship!
How could you?
I don't know if I can take this life anymore,
Please just stop the pain.
It erupts from my heart,
Spreads to my mind and body.
An encurable disease,
That's what I have.
Some call it heartbreak,
I call it a living death.
I beg of you, I'm on my knees,
Just stop the pain.
I can't take it anymore.
Every minute living is another stab in the back.
I walk up to his house, the boy you snatched from me,
I climb up the old tree in the backyard, going as high as possible.
"Catch me if you can," I mumble, going for the jump.
I hear a horrifying shriek, my own, or yours?
Wrong on both accounts I realized,
As I woke up in the hospital.
Beside me was the one I loved.
I guess you taught us something, my dear friend.
Don't give up, no matter how hard it gets,
Now every year we go together hand in hand,
To the tombstone that marks your name.
I'll never forget you,
My dear friend.
