Misty haze and distorted gaze
Can't keep my eyes off you
Can't deny the feelings I hide, they ring with so much truth
Shatter my pride when you make me cry
Break my heart without a clue
That seems to be all your heart, knows what to do

Lost in this maze for countless days
You are my only light
And when it comes to losing you, I always stop the fight
That's in my head and burns so bright and red
It's fueled by anger and despair
But somehow I can fool myself into believing that you care

One day I'll see reality
And realize there's no you and me
One day I'll see it all
And see the higher I climb the harder I fall
One day I'll learn to let you go and live in sanity
But today is not that day and right now for you, I'm crazy

Broken heart and countless scars
I can't heal my wounds
Because right now they're the only reminders that I have of you
Your eyes shine bright and give me hope
And I try so hard to cope
When I realize they don't shine for me
Because your stare makes me forget how to breathe
It's hard to tell what the difference is between what I believe and what I see
I'll never learn what true love is when you don't let me live

Everyday I've waited and everyday I've been let down
But everyday that I've waited, I've heard the same sound
My heart breaking, and the shards cutting my chest
If I finally let you go, my mind and body will be at rest

Today I've seen reality
And realized there's no you and me
Today I've seen it all
Because I have bruises from the fall
Today I've learned to let you go
And now you'll never know
What you used to mean to me, and now I've found the strength to let you go
