Quixotic. . .

I pretend with you around, I pretend to be who I'm not
But for some reason, I have no choice
It seems like you're no longer a part of my life
I wish you were, I wish you'd hold me
I wish for a lot of things, I wish for you, more importantly

They say. . Some people last forever
Some relationships can never be severed
Some mountains can never be climbed
Even if you scaled the hardest, another path you left behind

They say that friendship's a sacred bond
A bond so true, known to few
A bond so precious, it's inescapable
Yet, our friendship, has died

The time passes me by, and I sit here and wonder
What went wrong, and why
Fact of the matter is, there's never a single reason
It's a cumulation, of all of OUR lies

Lies we told each other, back when we were young
They resurface to haunt us, leave us cold and numb
Lies so painful, that the mention of your name pricks
Pricks my heart to no end. . and to the pain I succumb

Within my heart, your name is carved
Within my soul, yours.
Within my words, I hear your voice. .
Flowing, like we're one

But that was then, it seems so long ago
The time just faded, and the wounds are beginning to show. . .
I wish I could've told you, just how much you mean to me. .
I'm running out of time now. . There's no way to set me free. .

But something's are meant to die
Some relationships, meant to fade
Some reasons, left unknown
Some questions, best left unanswered
But as the days fall by, I know. .

That your heart I held within mine,
Your love, I treasured
You're that being, I'll love forever
No matter the distance, whatever the time
Know that within my heart, you'll always survive
