They say the truth hurts, instead it left me confused The hope of “us” shattering into pieces Staring at your response, hoping for an explanation Hope, the one thing I told myself not to have All I could do was laugh Tears threatened to fall, and all I did was laugh How could I, for one second believe? If only you made it easier for me Imagining your face, how could I be mad at that face? Hoping magically, you’d change your mind Looking into the sky Feeling empty inside Thinking about the endless possibilities You and I could’ve been “us” Hope, something you can’t escape No matter how many times you tell yourself not to hope It finds a way to escape You just end up getting hurt anyway
