This lie's become a part of me
For months, I've played this game
Acting like it doesn't hurt
Each time I hear his name
Ignoring what's inside of me
Pretending I've moved on
As if the feelings I once had
For him are somehow gone
Spending each and every day
With happiness and laughs
Forgetting all our memories
Avoiding photographs
But then i heard his voice
For the first time since he moved on
My heart stopped for a moment...
I couldn't catch my breath
When suddenly it hit me
As the tears started to flow
That even after all this time...
I just can't let him go
I often wonder why girls
laugh at the thought of a promise ring,
but now I've realized
they have been lied to
by a man who lacks sincerity
I'm left feeling my finger
where once someone promised a ring
that held the guarantee of forever
My days are now filled with
removing memorabilia you gave me
and clearing you from my thoughts
although I have yet to find
an eraser big enough, to
eliminate the emotions
that are eroding my heart
As time continues to climb on,
loving you less will become my goal
However, reaching it will take eternity
as the prerequisite is hurting more
