Words Make Me Feel Better, But They Hurt So Much To Say.
This isn't healthy:
 The way I've been acting.
 It really isn't healthy
 Cause your emotions are lacking.
  
 I think I'm holding too tight
 Cause you're still slipping farther away.
 So tonight I'll draw a bath
 And drown away the day
  
 The day, the months, the years of you
 Will take quite the lung power,
 But soon will be gone;
 Be just a haze within an hour
  
 Because I never loved you quite enough
 Or I always loved you too strong.
 It seems now the only option you're offering
 Is to say "So Long."
  
 Now the memories I hold dear
 Haunt my mind with ease.
 They only hurt me; make me cry.
 No longer there to please.
  
 I can write as long as I want.
 It will never ring true
 Because my stupid little heart
 Will still love you.
  
 And I know now you wish
 To no longer hear talk of this
 But as long as my heart beats
 It will think of your name as bliss.
  
 I wish I could stop it;
 Wish I could change how it sighs,
 But only God, tears, and time
 Control when love dies.
