if only somethings were true

i smiled at you when i saw you walk
i laughed at your awkward wave
you stared on at me with a warm smile
your lips curved up in a natural style

i remember when you hated me first
hated the the way i wrote (cause you were too proud)
i irked you by simply finishing my tests first
or by singing and talking really loud

i remember how we fought in class
how we began to laugh at us 
you pulled your little pranks at me
and i laughed it off, let it pass

you began to let me win at our arguments
you let me be the first in the line at lunch
when ever you spoke grammatically incorrect
you'd role your eyes at my comments

i remember the way we began to get along 
hung out after school, and laugh about
how much we changed as two friends 
best friends, you'd correct me, and be left there

i used to sit in the front seat,
when you tapped my shoulder 
and passed a chit to me 
making my heart skip a beat

i hoped it was what i never thought it would be
funny, i thought, why i would be hoping so
cause in the chit you wrote those 
words i wish i had never seen

you loved a girl you wrote to me 
her name surely wasn't me
i turned back at you with a tight lipped smile
and fought back the tears that i shouldn't set free

but today as i see you, all grown up and nice
i realise how foolish, little me had been
your test was a fail for i remained shut for so long
you tell me you loved me all along

i realise how i didnt notice the little things you did
i wonder how everyone thought you loved me
but now i realise that i was the only you told
that you loved the other girl, when you really didn't 

all stories can be happy 
if you want them to be
so i wrote this like its the future 
i want to see...

Why I Cried

i look through rush for you
i look through the crowd to catch a glimpse of you

i remember when you were young, i was young, in love, we were young
i remember when we were lost, out of focus, still and numb

i used to be your life, be your love, or i guess i was naive
i used to think we were something that would last, be alive

i fell for your charm, all the tricks, hard in love from the start
i fell for the words, promises you never kept, broke my heart

i let go of the past, apologiesed for mistakes i never made
i let go of the lies, although i cried all night, alone and afraid

i walked through the pain alone
i walked through the rain back home

i slept in the cold bed
i slept with my old ted

you drank up my soul with the beer
you pushed when i came near

i fall back, i pray you, i was sincere 
i fall back, breath gone, i wont fear

i ask you to see me cry, please stop
i ask you to look above ill be hanging from the top
