Because I Love You


Because I love you, I will hide my pain. I will act as if I am completely sane Because I love you, I'll give you a kiss and a hug, But the hole in my chest will open with just one little tug. Because I love you, I will laugh and smile. Just for you, I can do this for a while. Because I love you, It's easier to live. But you've done so much, How much more can you give? Because I love you, I can no longer endure, I have made a decision and this is for sure Because I love you, It's time to say goodbye, I'm sorry if it feels like just one big lie Because I love you, I will finally go, I was blinded by darkness But I hope you'll never know Because I love you I wish you the best, As I lie in this coffin And lay my head to rest
