I saw you working late last night
Standing over there
Looking past me with your eyes
Haunted by your cold and distant stare.

I wanted to kiss you, hold you,
Run my fingers through your hair
But I just stood there looking
Pretending like I didn't even care.

An unrelenting tension
Seems to have come between us
Wanting to make things right again
But to you, there’s nothing to discuss.

Your endless professions of love
Have all but disappeared.
And even though I thought we’d make it,
Hate has, once again, persevered.

Trying to understand
Why do things seem to always go wrong?
Trying to relive every waking moment
When you made me feel like I belonged.

But yet again,
Nothing can or will bring you back
I could cry endless tears to drown the world
But they’d never make up for what I lack.

Two hour phone calls and folded love letters
Have come and gone like waves of the ocean
And even though I love you still
You have run out of undying devotion.

If I said I was sorry
Would you let me crawl back to your feet?
The fact that you deny me now…
Without you, I will never be complete.
