You'll always be my best friend
You've been my love
You are everything I couldn't dream of.

I'll break myself,
Each and every day,
I'll be the one who doesn't turn out okay
Because as long as you smile,
I'll know my job is done,
As long as you laugh,
I'll know you've found the one.

I'll break myself if it means you smile
I'll let myself bleed
Cut curves into my cheeks
I'll fake it
I'll fake everything!
Just to make this turn out okay.

I'll fake it...
I've got no one to blame but myself
Smile for I know I'm to blame,
Smile so I know you'll be okay
Smile... Because if I'm gone,
maybe that's what I'll see
Maybe you won't see the worst in me

I'll never be the best friend you've ever had,
But i'll never try to be the reason you're sad
I'll break my heart in two
Drop the half that used to beat for you

I'll bring myself to my knees,
Seemingly hold the universe with ease
Hoping you will be pleased
For I want to be your friend
Even if it means breaking till the end

I can stomach the breaking
Of every word I write...
Though I understand
If I've lost a friend,
on this fretful night.
