There was something I had failed to mention
These times I had failed to get your attention
Something I was dying inside to say
Except you would always turn me away
There's a reply that I had always sought
Throughout all the times we had ever fought
I was begging you to tell me straight
Except that you would hesitate
But what I'll never let you know
Is that I'll never let you go.
And what you'll never care to say
Is that you'll never care to stay.

No matter how many times we fight
No matter if nothing here seems right
No matter how much I just keep talking
No matter how far you keep on walking
Something returns me to this place
Something reminds me of your grace
There's something there I cannot fight
I guess I'll always know you're right
But I'll still never let you know
How hard it is to let you go
You'll still never care to say
How very little you care to stay

And so we both stay here, always plotting
While around us, the relations are rotting
And all around us, the world is too strange
For me to handle, I can't accept change
So we keep this dead thing living by pretending
Our friendship is long-lasting and not ending
But as things go on, it will be too clear
And death will take the form of my fear
The fear of finally letting you go
The fear of finally letting you know
How much I wish I could hear you say
How much you wish you were here to stay.
