Love does not hurt so a friend once told me
So why then am I filled with so much agony?
Why can I not just move on and be strong
Perhaps I assumed with us nothing would go wrong

If this pain is a sign of what is to come
Lord, please take my heart so I can feel numb
And I’ll fight the urge to replace love for hate
No matter what, you don’t deserve such a cruel fate

My pillow is wet, my eyes are red
It’s the worst time I feel when I go to bed
And I pray to God that you hear my chant
Comeback sweetie is the wish I want him to grant
