It's time to give up on you
Get off this couch because your call won't come through
You've forgotten about so I have to forget about you

You tell me to stay in touch but you ignore me when I do
So guess what, the next time we meet, I'll ignore you

When we got off that bus you didn't say goodbye
I've thought abut it some and I think I know why

You're embarrassed to have me as a friend
So I guess that this is the end

I think about you everyday
I wear this bracelet so you don't seem so far away

I've never felt so strongly before
And I've never felt so strongly ignored

It hurts to know you don't care about me, it hurts to know you don't miss and want me
When everyday its your face I long to see

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts so damn much
I don't ever curse but I want to tell you how much you suck

Anger and frustration is what I feel
I want to yell and scream at you and make everything a big deal

You hurt me, inevitably, accidentally, but I just want to hate you
No, I'll admit, you never did anything, you didn't mean to
I guess I'm just made at myself for feeling the things I do

I'm frustrated, I'm upset, I'll say with you; I don't care if it's a lie
I want everything to be your fault, being mad is easy, I don't want this anger to subside 

Even though I know behind that is a hurt so deep
A broken heart that just wants you, with me

I miss you everyday; 
There are times when I smile because I remember a face you make, a word you say
And there are times when I'm close to tears
Because I remember I won't see those things for nearly a year

I'm jealous of all the kids who will get to see you and say hi to you everyday
And me, I'll just be missing you, from so far away

Two more weeks until I'm surrounded by new faces
I hope one of them can be your replacement

I want a distraction, I want someone new
Because it hurts to be in love with you

Loving someone who doesn't love you. It sucks. I'm sure everyone can relate.
