i don't know
what happened to you
i don't know
what happened to us
what i did wrong
what i did
for you to walk off
into your new life
and leave me in the dark
so many have told me
to forget about you
that i deserve someone better
someone that will make me happy
for the rest of my days
and maybe they're right
honestly
i couldn't tell you back then
all i knew is
some moments
i had a fire
burning bright and hot
in my soul
my hate burning up my despair
which seemed to have no end
but some moments
under the cover of night
when the world got quiet
and it was only me and the stars
i thought back on our happy moments
the few that we were able to steal for ourselves
and i couldn't help but smile at those precious memories
some of which i knew i would treasure forever
and i couldn't help but think
that you were the only person
who would ever understand me
and that i would only ever find happiness
in the messed up way i found it with you
it's funny
isn't it?
you betrayed me
you just disappeared without a word
even though you promised you never would
and yet
i think i forgive you
i know you'll never read this
and that's okay
cause it's not for you, it's for me
and the rest of the world to see
