Reminiscing what had been,
Of the times when by your eyes,
Only I was seen.
Never will I hold their attention, never again,
Never will I have that affection, ever again.
I wish I could change what we have come to be,
I wish we could still be us,
Not just you and me.
When I asked you how you were doing,
If you were well,
Your fake laughter belied everything,
Of the pain inside it did tell.
I see how hard you work to convince me,
But I see through the hypocrisy.
I wish I could still tell you everything is going to be okay,
I know this separation makes it harder for you every day.
I wish I could change what we have come to be,
I wish we could still be us,
Not just you and me.

Reminiscing what had been,
Of the times when by your eyes,
Only I was seen.
Never will I hold their attention, never again,
Never will I have that affection, ever again.
I wish I could change what we have come to be,
I wish we could still be us,
Not just you and me.
When I asked you how you were doing,
If you were well,
Your fake laughter belied everything,
Of the pain inside it did tell.
I see how hard you work to convince me,
But I see through the hypocrisy.
I wish I could still tell you everything is going to be okay,
I know this separation makes it harder for you every day.
I wish I could change what we have come to be,
I wish we could still be us,
Not just you and me.
