I’m just a girl who loves a girl, who loves a boy who doesn't even
care…
And that’s just one more pain in this life that I cannot bear.

When yesterday is all that was and never will be again…
Today is yesterday, and tomorrow never begins.

The future is not now…
It’s never… and you’re never here, but I go on existing somehow.

I hope that you sleep soundly, but I know you’re never alone…
I am the one who helped you carry on with life… Now I’m the one quiescently
by the phone.

Each night when I shut these bloodshot eyes, yet another part of me dies.

Alas, I crawl into an unforgiving bed of obscurity…
And say goodnight to the ghost of you and me.
