You closed the door so gently
so kindly and so softly
Yet the sound was deafening
I fear I may never hear again

10 steps is all it took
You were out of my sight
I was out of your mind
yet somehow you remain in mine

I see your face when I look at mine
Knowing you created my smiles
My tears
My pain
And my lies

All I want for you is happiness
And for yours I must sacrifice mine

Will the two ever coincide?

Iā€™m jealous of the fact you live without me
not even a thought
I wish I could do the same
But Iā€™m stuck with me

All I can change is my name
