I want to let you go. I never wanted to let you go.
I want to make you happy. But I'm broke myself.
You're confused. All I need is time to fix myself.
I said to live your life without me. I never liked the thought.
We parted. I missed you.
You see me smile. I saw myself hurt.
I want you back. I can't stand my selfishness.
I want to talk to you like how we used to be just friends. I kept my distance.
You're happy, moving on. I'm happy for you.
You deserve every happiness this world has. I will always be here, your friend.
You ever have one of those days
Where the world's weight sets
Just a bit heavier on your shoulders
As you try your best to meet
Everyone's high standards,
But you can't because all you are is failure;
And you know that all you need
Is to hear one person say,
"Hey, you're doing great. It's hard;
But I'm proud of you."?

Ever have one of those days
Where that's all you'll need in order to make it--
Just one person to be proud of you?

Now I know you don't think much of me,
So this may not mean much to you,
But I think it should mean more
Than anybody else's words:

Well, I'm proud of you.
