This Time I Won't Lie, So For Now, Goodbye.

Yesterday I walked in and for once nothing changed

Except some couches here and there that had all been rearranged

I sat down and smiled but you didn't look my way

So I kept a straight face, tried to enjoy the day

With the way I'd been acting, I should've seen it coming

And you were just fine, so happy, even humming

I sat and watched as everything I'd known went down the drain 

The ease with which you left still messes with my brain

And he was sitting by me screaming nonsense in my ear

And I wondered if he had made our friendship dissapear

We used to sit and talk without having to think

And now all that was gone in the time it took to blink

And the hardest part about it was the pain I felt inside

So sudden and intense, impossible to hide

But you just sat there smiling, talking to some girl

And I hated your indifference to what used to be my world

So I left and locked the thoughts of you away inside my mind

Because the people we both used to be I think we'll never find

I'm tired of these ups and downs that never seem to end

Because somehow each time I fall and break, you just merely bend 

I hate missing you and knowing that you never miss me too

And I hate the way the things I loved no longer describe you

And the person that I used to know is no longer around

And whoever took his place has left me crumpled on the ground 

So this time I'll get back up, and I know I've said all that before

So I won't promise to just move on as you walk out the door

This is will take some time, and that I have accepted

Because I'm tired of this "love" with which I seem to be infected
