I know you don’t love me ...
Like that at least.
I’m your best friend, always here to protect and serve.

I don’t mind this at all of course
But I have to say
     This kills me.

Not you, it’s not your fault.
It’s my stupid heart not communicating with my brain
     This kills me.

I try not to tell you or show how much I love you
It’s weird for you and I can tell.
     This kills me.

I see these guys run through your life and hurt you
I’m tired of seeing you hurt and feeling helpless to it
     This kills me.

I stay out.
Be emotionless Virginia, emotionless is the key
     This kills me.

It kills me because I know you know it hurts me
It kills me because I don’t want to feel this way
It kills me because I can’t help it although I’ve **** sure tried
It kills me because I don’t know what to do
It kills me because I’m slowly dying on the inside and each day it gets worse

I’m trying dear,
I really am.
