| Do you know of the torments that I feel. |
| Do you know of the shredding that ravages my soul. |
| Do you know of the way my insides tear |
| every time I see his arms around you. |
| Do you know of how I run desperately to the corner of my room |
| to bawl in a manner unbecoming of a hero, |
| Do you know of how it's all because of jealousy |
| because I simply wish that I were he. |
|
| Do you know of how I sob unctrollably |
| at the fact that I'll never be the one you love |
| at the fact that I'll never be the one you want |
| at the fact that I'll never be the one you keep |
| at the fact that I'll never be the one to make you happy. |
|
| At the fact that I could never be yours- because it's him. |
|
| Do you know how it burns my soul and sears my insides |
| that no matter how strong my love is, no matter how strong my will is |
| their sheer might could never bridge the gap between the space and time that keep you from me |
| and could never take me to the place in your heart |
| that could make it so that I am yours and that you are mine. |
| Because you're not. And you'll never be. And it tears me apart. |
