Why can't we just get along

It's been too many times

And I've missed you a lot

I don't see how it's still hurting me

I've tried closing my heart

And been left broken apart

But it all still won't let me be



You said that your future

Doesn't involve me,

It's non of my business anymore,

You told me your hoping

that there's someone else for you

As I'm praying for us on the floor



Your all I've ever seen

Your all I knew now it's wrong

Your the one who let go

Why can't we get along

I know that I must be going

this healing road will be long

I still wish that you love me

But to you I've already been gone



Nobody knows what forever is

When you dedicate your life to someone

Marriage now is just to keep track

And it's always all about who won

A blanket under the stars

You must really be from Mars

And there is no fight left in your done



But I still love you

It's as strong as the pain

It burns deep down to its darkest blue

I just know that you gave up

Whatever is easiest for you



I hope one day you remember me

While your holding who you hoped for

I hope a tear falls how does shit taste

And I hope you don't lie to her face

All the things you do that I needed too

For a girl who won't get her mouth wet

Sucks to be you I know it's all wrong

Why couldn't we just get along

Why couldn't we just get along
