You said that you were
going to love me
through it all.
But now I am
standing here
with nothing,
and you are
nowhere to be found.

I should have known
that what you meant
is that you would
be there with me
through everything,
until I ended up
with nothing
for you to take.

I want to tell you
that I love you,
but I’m afraid
that if I do,
you will no longer
want what you
can’t have.

You were the only one
who stayed by my side
when everything
suddenly came
crashing down
around me.

And even if you
don’t think
that meant something,
you should know 
that it meant everything
to me.

You don’t have to love yourself to know what love is.But sometimes,that can help.

You don’t have to
love yourself to know
what love is.
But sometimes,
that can help.

When I left your houseI told you that I was tired.But really, I was just tiredof being with you.

When I left your house
I told you that I was tired.
But really, I was just tired
of being with you.

Sadness can make you 
into a completely 
different person.

You no longer see
the realistic sides
in life.

Everything feels as if
it is crumbling
around you.

Your mind
will tell your heart
that giving up
is the only solution.

You want to surrender
to everything
that you once
fought against.

Nothing could make you
as happy as the one
you loved the most
being by your side.

The sadness will find
a way to consume
your every thought.

The only thing
that can you heal
is time.

But when it comes
to sadness, not even time
seems to be
on your side.

Do not measure my lovein how many timesI would weep at your feet.Measure my lovein how many timesI...

Do not measure my love
in how many times
I would weep at your feet.

Measure my love
in how many times
I told you that I would
keep fighting for you;
even after you would leave.

I believe that lovecan set you free.And I also believethat love can destroy everything that you...

I believe
that love
can set
you free.

And I
also believe
that love
can destroy
everything that
you once
considered to
be true.

I would have never knownthat everything you once said to me,and everything that you once claimed to...

I would have never known
that everything you once said to me,
and everything that you once 
claimed to have felt would have
deteriorated almost as quickly
as the love that I created for you.
I used up all of my time
trying to get you to see
that what we could build together
would be something
that was worth sticking around for.
I just wish that you would have told me
what you wanted from the start,
instead of leading me to the end
just to tell me that you can longer
love me in the way that you used to.
