Tears, like petals, fall from your eyes
Daggers pierce through your heart
I watch you shatter, crumbling to the ground
You’re dying
It’s all ending..

A story that couldn’t begin
No pages left in the book of your life
This isn’t how it was meant to be
Not the happy ending you dreamed

I extend my hand, but hesitation takes its place
Shadows of doubt cloud my steps
So I turn around
Pretending you do not exist
In your story, I’m nothing but an observer
A mere background character

Watching you from afar hurts my heart
Seeing you fall is like being stabbed
Your cries echo in this place
I witness you die
No end to this misery in our lives
This is all ending
Your story that couldn’t begin

Your wings crushed by their steps
Their cruelty knows no bounds
It’s messed up how this world works
There’s no escaping now

The sunrise, I wish never to see again
It’s not as pretty without your smile
Nothing feels the same as it was
I know it’ll never be okay again
Although the season will change
My hurt will remain

I will be frozen in the same place
In our memory lane
I will live through another night
Morning will surely arrive
I will smile without you
Today, tomorrow, and the day after
My story will continue without you

But every new year makes me feel like dying
All these things hold no meaning
Wish I could go back to years before
There’s no end to this snow
It’s an endless road

Tears may be frozen but the rain won’t stop
The heaviness in me only grows
The emptiness devours all my hope
Wish I could be like before
I loved you, I love you, my love for you only grows
But you’ll never know
You’ll never know..

You’re dying, and there’s no way to stop how it all ends
Your story that never got to begin

Now I am scared
I am so afraid
I’m running out of time
One day my story will end
Just like yours
It’ll never get to begin
There’s no happy end
to the book of our lives.
