He used to make me so happy,
Always bringing out the best.
But now the pain is growing,
Trying to explode out of my chest.

If dating her is what he wants,
Then I'll say I want it too.
But I'm struggling to just hold on,
Trying to make it through.

Deep down, I want to save myself
From inevitable emotional strife.
I know I'm hurt, and yes it's tough,
But I want him in my life!

What can I do with this boy
Who I love so much?
He brings me hurt and pain,
But I long for one last touch.

Can I put myself through this?
I'm thinking this won't do.
I need you here with me,
And I sure as hell love you.
