My happiness is jaded
By the darkness in your eyes
(You always look away)
Whatever has changed you
Has made yesterday’s love into lies

Whatever has possessed you
Built a wall of ice between us
(I see you through the glass)
The silence and the vagueness
Leaves me little sanity (only just…)

But maybe it won’t hurt as bad
If I learn to believe that...
You don’t need to care
You don’t have to love me
All the time
I am not alone here
I don’t need you near me
All the time

I tell myself again and again

You don’t need to care
You don’t have to love me
All the time
I am not alone here
I don’t need you near me
All the time

I don’t think I could bear
To wait and watch you slip away
(Farther away)
There’s nothing I can do
It seems you’re farther everyday

The pain that I must suffer
Is only in my mind it seems
(I’m tortured by my memories)
I only need to tell myself
That I must let go of my dreams

But I just can’t do that…

You’re too blind to see me burning
And I guess that that’s okay, because
You don’t need to care
You don’t have to love me
All the time
I am not alone here
I don’t need you near me
All the time

I tell myself again and again

You don’t need to care
You don’t have to love me
All the time
I am not alone here
I don’t need you near me
All the time

All the time

You just don’t see
You just can’t see
You will never understand
I can’t tell you
That I love you
That I’ll never turn away

You don’t have to love me in return…
