Verse 1
I've been thinking about you lately
Remembering, every little thing, that was great when you were my lady
I've tried to block it all out
But the pain is hard to keep in
You try to scream and you shout
To let go of the pain within.
But it's hopeless, so you sit home all alone.
waiting for that call, waiting by that phone
thinking won't be too long until I hear your voice again
Knowing that it's hopeless every time that I try to pretend
That you will do so, but we both know
this has got me locked in a chokehold
I've tried hard, so damn hard
but my heart won't let me let go
What do you do when you she is running through your mind
and you can't help but wonder if she's really doing fine
because you feel that down inside, no matter what you say
you know heart's breaking apart and you hope she feels the same
because all is fair in love and war
so why should she walk away
with her heart in one piece, when she took half of yours
Lying to myself, saying I wish you all the best
Keeping all the secrets of the words I never said
So instead, when you call me and I throw the phone aside
I'm hoping that when I don't answer you will finally realise that
Chorus
I still go to call you
when things go wrong
I still go to call you
when things go right
I still always call you
to see if you're okay
but I know that's not my right
Verse 2
I wonder if you're doing well, or if you're life's a living hell
I wonder what you're thinking when you're by yourself
Do you lose your mind like I do?
Do the hours drag by?
Do you look at those old photographs
when I was by your side?
Fuck this stupid train of thought
how dare you stay, upon my train, I want you to get off
Heartbreak is like warfare, you conquer and you occupy
And I'm trying hard to fight back, fighting hard to take back my life
I don't want you to pity me
I know you're sick of me
I know the truth is you want to be rid of me
I see it vividly, all that we are is a series of memories
that ended bitterly
I know you thought that we
could last eternity
but I guess it was a dream too far out of reach
You were the reason I breathe but ironically
now
I am lying to myself, saying I wish you all the best
Keeping all the secrets of the words I never said
So instead, when you call me and I throw the phone aside
I'm hoping that when I don't answer you will finally realise that
