You left in the cold so long ago
you told me you loved me,
but then why'd you have to go
i begged you to stay
but you walked away
and no matter how hard i tried,
i couldn'd keep you occupied
your mind wandered like the wind
here for a second, then gone
again
i cried every night
my friends worried i'd do something drastic
i changed my email
imissyousomuch@heartbreak.com
just in case you miss me too
if you ever came back,
i would never be able to say no
i'd take you back in the blink of
an eye
i just wish you'd realize,
i won't be able to survive forever
if you keep walking away
again and again
then coming right back
i can't keep this up
next time you leave i think i'll
kill myself...

doesn't it just make you mad, someone making the same mistake over, and over again?
and you get to stand there, on the sidelines, hoping you won't get hurt?
