Moving On
September 4, 2014
I know I'm supposed to be okay,
But that's not the case every day.
I think about you all the time,
At least three times a day you're on my mind.
Could it be that I wasn't sure about the answer I gave?
I swear on my life I made mistake.
All those memories forgotten and all that time was a waste,
Now I became just another face.
A lonely soul, a shattered heart,
Didn't know losing you would be this hard...
I don't even know where I am going,
And it's so difficult that you are moving on.
Years gone by, thought that you'd still care,
Said that you loved me, that you'd always be there.
Could it be that you were wrong?
Was I just another boy all along?
No problem for you to relinquish me,
But forgetting you isn't gonna be so easy.
You're fine and you know what you're doing,
As for me, I should be moving on...
Lay my head down on my pillow,
Dozing off to when you first said hello.
The sound of your voice; a repeating sound,
The memory is a recurrence of pain that I should have kept you around.
You ran out on me before I could get a word in,
My blood ran cold from the thought that I'll never hold you again.
Has a new love interest already taken my place?
It's tough knowing you'll never again kiss my face.
I spend most of my nights all alone,
Hoping you'll call as I clutch my phone.
With an empty deck, I drew the wrong card,
Didn't know losing you would be this hard...
I don't even know where I am going,
And it's so difficult that you are moving on.
Years gone by, thought that you'd still care,
Said that you loved me, that you'd always be there.
Could it be that you were wrong?
Was I just another boy all along?
No problem for you to relinquish me,
But forgetting you isn't gonna be so easy.
You're fine and you know what you're doing,
As for me, I should be moving on...
I sit down and write this complex note,
Writing all the words that got trapped inside my throat.
Can't say what was on my mind,
I wanted you to know you're one of a kind.
Emptiness is consuming me whole,
Missing you is beginning to take a toll.
I'm sorry that we fell apart,
Seems I'm the only one with a broken heart.
You've moved on and I probably should too,
Forgetting about us is hard to do...
I don't even know where I am going,
And it's so difficult that you are moving on.
Years gone by, thought that you'd still care,
Said that you loved me, that you'd always be there.
Could it be that you were wrong?
Was I just another boy all along?
No problem for you to relinquish me,
But forgetting you isn't gonna be so easy.
You're fine and you know what you're doing,
As for me, I should be moving on...
