They say this is the best part of your life,
But for me when does it start?
They say true friends lie inside the halls,
But it seems like they are all hiding.
Why do I feel so alone,
when the pictures are full of memories?

I think cause you're so far away
and I don't have the words to say how I feel to anyone else.
Cause without you my world is full of secrets that I'm willing to keep in
Just to fit in
Just to stand out
Just to live on

It's been a year ago,
What a long time ago?
I can still remember the first time I looked into your eyes.
And I wanted to cry

But you held me up and said it's alright
You used your words of wisdom and held me tight
I told you I was scared and you made me laugh with your stupid words of wisdom.
How I miss that

Maybe I wasn't ready to let go.
I was waiting for you to grab my hand and run me down that hall and out of the building.
So for we stay and never be caught,
cause I was your Juliet and you were the stupid Romeo,
that took a broken down girl into his arms.
Build her up high and watch her fly
And you never came back

Now I sit here waiting,
talking to myself,
Telling myself that you really do care.
And you're out there somewhere
thinking the same
Holding another girl
Whispering my name
But I will forgive you
Cause that's who I am.
I'm a forgiver but I'll never forget.
But that's okay I'll do just fine sitting here on my own.
