The Cost

You’ll probably never see
What a mess you’ve made of me
‘Cause you’ll probably never see me again
Well you walked away
From a price you wouldn’t pay
But I’m still alone here in the end

And as much as I want to
I can’t seem to forget you
And I just can’t not cry
But I really can’t think
Why I’m standing on this brink
Considering you were never really mine

I guess I sort of loved you
Even though you didn’t love me too
Sometimes it’s a one-way street
It just hurts that you wouldn’t even try
And now you won’t look me in the eye
So I guess I’m walking alone with sore feet.

I’ve been sick for a while
But you always made me smile
And I thought you might be the cure
But you never wanted me
That much I can see
I was a fool, but I was just so sure.

My life was like a black night
And you were like a white light
Filling me with hope and relief
I thought things could get better
I predicted sunny weather
Oh, what a stupid belief.

But here’s the disillusion
In our tragic conclusion
You left me to pay the cost
Of all of this pain
For choosing to play your stupid game
I didn’t know what I’d lose until I lost
