Why Did It Have To End


There I go

 

Looking again

 

Seeing you with your brand new friends

 

You don't miss me

 

You're glad I'm gone

 

We ended with a bang

 

You ran strong

 

I check on you

 

Every now and then

 

Getting sadder

 

And a little depressed

 

You were a great friend

 

In the time we had

 

But time goes on

 

And I understand

 

We weren't good together

 

Even if we thought we were

 

You brought me down

 

It was fun while it lasted

 

But I need closure

 

I know that won't happen

 

Because we've already said goodbye

 

I'm try to hold it together

 

So I don't cry tonight

 

This may not rhyme the way I wish

 

But it's from the heart

 

I wish I could fix it

 

The heart, at least.
