I couldn't find love,
So I thought I'd create it,
Didn't think much about it,
So I didn't think to fake it,

Going on in my head,
It played out so nice,
but you didn't feel the same way,
No, not in this life,

I pushed you to love me,
pretended we were fine,
When in reality, there was no 'real',
The relationship was a lie,

You wanted me,
I wanted more,
than to wait until midnight to knock on your door,
You pushed me away,
but I clung to your side,
I knew without you, my dream would die,
So I'll be here alone,
waiting for your 'one day',
but hopefully by then,
I'll be long gone away

I should have thought more about it,
I should have put up my guard,
I hate when that when I'm with you,
that simple task becomes so hard,
But I failed and let it down,
with your, "Let's just be friends,"
you broke my heart so many times,
why not let you do it again?

You wanted me,
I wanted more,
than to wait until midnight to knock on your door,
You pushed me away,
but I clung to your side,
I always meant for life,
when I said "ride or die",
now when you come back, I'll be long gone away,
and here you'll stay, regretting the day, you sent me away,

I put it all on the line for you,
You really ******* me over,
for what it's worth I know I'm better,
I'll find another lover,
But you, you
you are gunna miss me.

You wanted me again,
already out the door,
"Let's be more than friends,"
No honey, not anymore,
I'm passing you now with tears in my eyes,
I loved you once but we were a lie,
Now that you're back, I'm so far gone away,
I'm not coming home, No I'm not going to stay.
