How can I stand seeing you another day,
Knowing you will never look my way?
The thought of you brings tears to my eyes,
but I can't take one more day of your lies.
You told me you cared,
so a chance on you I dared.
That chance left me shaking,
now I have this fear of waking.
Knowing you are gone,
and it is me you frown upon.
I fear this pain you cause.
It defies all of the laws--
the laws I've laid down for myself.
I thought I'd laid my feelings on a far-off shelf.
But no, they're still there,
Haunting my every dream and nightmare.
And now I fear tomorrow.
I can't take one more day of sorrow.
I fear a future without you,
I fear being in love with you.
But now I know I am
and forever I will be stuck in this quick-sand
of my lonely emotions--dying.
Away from your lying,
Away from you.
Away from the love I hold for you.
And as you disappeared that night,
so you'll disappear from my life.
And though I'll see you one last time,
you'll be forever in my mind--
haunting me constantly,
driving me to insanity.
