As my heart it slowly dies

as my heart it slowly dies

and tears well in my eyes

my greatest fear is recognised

once again i'm not the one

although my words fade away unsung

i know the truth i've been hiding from

he doesn't feel this

i'm just a friend

why does my heart always choose to

fall

for people who only "like"

or worse feel nothing at all

at least i have him as my friend

because this he says

is forever and will not end

but i can never hold him

so close and tight

never let him see my tears

i have to pretend that i'm fine

i'm alright

what if he wants to know whats wrong

when i can't look him in the eye

trying my best to be strong

when he looks at me

doesn't he see it in my eyes

this love i have to cover up

bury deep in lies

as my heart it slowly dies
