A candle unlit
A room so cold
A broken window
Is all I hold
My love, my life
I've lost to thee
It is my fate
But I want to be free
Why, my love
You had to leave?
Was my love not enough
Or you didn't belive
Instead, you smile
Like nothing's wrong
While seeing another hand
Touching you for long
It is okay, I guess now
To forget you for good
Even your memories
To erase, if only I could
It is easier for you
To say goodbyes
To the hand that holds you now
Doesn't know your lies
I hope you treat her right
And she might treat you same
Unlike my drowning fate
Else, she might end up same...
