I looked at you and you looked back at me,
but all I could see was the love we once shared
slowly dying.

  In the beginning everything was great.
Until I made that fatal mistake.
Now nothing between us will ever be the same.
My heart is cracking into a million pieces.

  Yes I know that it was all my fault,
but it doesn't change the pain I feel.
The pain I feel when you can't even stand to look at me.
The pain I feel when you can't stand to touch me.

  Please tell me what I can do to make my wrong a right.
I would give my very life if thats what it will take.
I have made many mistakes,
but being foolish enough to let you slip away is one
I can't take.

  Without you my life would be meaningless.
No longer will I have a reason to wake.
If you tell me that your love for me has died my heart will cease to beat.

  I looked at you but your back was all that was facing me.
All your attention was lost in another dirction.
At that moment I realized your eternal answer.
With that my heart froze into a crystal of ice and shattered to pieces.
My skin became hard, pale, and cold.
I turned and walked away
never to look back again.

  In the beginning everything was great.
Until I made that fatal mistake.
Now nothing between us will ever be the same.
