How Could

How could the one I gave my world to
Throw my world away
How could the one that said they loved me
Not mean what they say

How could it hurt so much
When he said I meant nothing at all
How could I still love him
If he wasn’t there to catch me when I’d fall

Why was it so easy for him to say goodbye
When it hurt just watching him walk away
Why do I feel so tangled up inside
My feelings have all gone astray

How could he break my heart
When he said he wouldn’t dream of doing it
How could he go ahead and give up
When he promised not to quit

How could this have happened
I thought everything was fine
How could he love someone else
When he promised to remain mine

How can I miss him
I’m sure he doesn’t miss me
How can I still want to see him
When I’m sure I’m the last person he wants to see

Why can’t I let him go
He’s already forgotten my name
Why can’t I follow suite
I should just do the same

Why does it ache all over
He doesn’t seem to suffer from any pain
Why does it feel so bad
And all I can do is complain

How could it be over
I wish it didn’t end like this
How could he walk away forever
And finalize his goodbye with an empty kiss
