And I swear to God
I'm not strong enough
To face this pain again
I felt something was there,
But not to this extent

My **** heart will never learn
You've obliterated it to pieces
Investing trust and secrets
From all its deepest creases

Before I lost a lover,
But now my closest friend
You're selfish and you know it
You've lost nothing in the end

Go on, get back to living
Your life before I arrived
Pretend this heart didn't love you
With everything inside

I can fake a pretty good smile
So, don't worry, no one will know,
But the one you once gave me
Will forever cease to show
