I’m waiting in the dark, in the cold, and I’m scared, and I’m lonely.
I try to wait patiently for your return, but I’m starting to believe that it may never happen,
and I understand why.
I made you wait so long, unknowingly and selfishly I pushed you farther and farther away,
and now you’re gone, and it still hurts.

I get what I deserve, but it still hurts.

I was wrong, and I made the worst mistake possible,
and I lost the best thing in my life for it.
That’s what I get, but it still hurts.

I cry for my lost love, but I know it’s all my fault.
I’m cursed to screw up everything I do, and this is just one more thing,
but it still hurts.

I could never make you understand how I feel now.
I could never show my love and the sorrow I have for my mistakes enough
for you to believe them, and I understand why, but it still hurts.

I feel the scratching, burning pain I have caused myself,
and though I try to numb it, it still hurts.

I wish for things that could never happen now, a love I destroyed long ago,
and I dream that maybe I have it back, and then I am happy again,
but when I wake up, it still hurts.

I cry myself to sleep to drown out the voices I keep hearing in my head that remind me what I lost,
but it still hurts.

I know I got what I deserve,
but that doesn’t change the way I feel, because it still hurts.
