I'd Hate To Be You When People Find Out What This Song Is About...

I used to have the world in my hands.I was perhaps the luckiest and happiest guy in he world.Was.Of course I can remember,it was only last year.Time and time again,I play-backed the course of events in my mind.How I took her heart,how I felt her fingers between mine and unfortunately,how it ended so briefly.Just like every other person who has suffered a break up,I have my own memory box where I keep all her photograph,gifts and letters neatly and free for browsing at any time of the day.I sieved through the items one by one,in the order of the time I received it.I felt my heart sink ever so deeply and it took me quite a while to regain my composure.That was perhaps one of the moments in life in which I felt most vulnerable.

"We've been friends since forever.And I don't want to screw things up.No matter what happens,we'll still be great friends.I'm still the same person I was before yesterday,and you're still you.And that won't change."

Your words hit my hard.It felt as if I had let everybody down but more importantly,the both of us.I must confess that when we parted,I felt a slight bruise.But that was as far as it went then,a year on,the bruise left a scar and that was the few times in which I truly felt regret.A sense of loss which I can never take back and change now that it's beyond my control and way out of my hands.I am disappointed as to how it ended and how I wish it would've lasted longer.Disappointed of myself for letting you go just like that.Regret for how things are now.We are nothing but strangers now.Remorse as to how it will stay that way for perhaps,the rest of our lives.I do not ever regret being together with you although I wished that I could be with you now that I've grown up.

Loved and lost.Haven't we heard that before being used over and over again.

One thing I can be sure is that you have made me a stronger person.It moulded me to who I am today.Sure I haven't changed much but I know my strengths and weaknesses better now than ever before and I'm still trying to overcome my fears.You're probably leading a better life now and I'm glad it turned out well for you.At least I feel more at ease.Though I don't show it,I still and will continue to keep an extra look out for you knowing or unknowingly because you are still the special few people in my life.And I'm still wearing your heart on my sleeve with your favourite songs in the background.

To be honest,I don't blame you for what has happened now.Maybe it was also because I deserved it.By penning down my thoughts into words and words into lines,you probably felt I went overboard.Half the time,I was thinking about you as I was writing it down in ink.And the melody just came with such ease.Smooth transitions and with time,it garnered attention and became a hit.You don't deserve all that treatment.I am sorry for using our story,more importantly,you as the subject.I know you hated it.And you have every right to to hate me as well.I'm sorry for everything.I'd hate to be you when people find out what this song is about...


And we both go down together
We'd stay there forever
Just try to get up
And I'm sorry
This wasn't easy
When I asked you, believe me
And never let go

Well, I'm thinking of the worst things
That I could say to you
But a promise doesn't mean a thing
Anymore
And this never will be right with me
And now you're trying to desperately
But I'm tongue tied and terrified of what i'll say

And then we both go down together
We may stay there forever
And just try to get up
And I'm sorry
This wasn't easy
When I asked you, believe me
You never let go
But I let go

I could only sing you sad songs
And you could sing along
And you could see the melody
That's been calling out your wrongs
And this never will be right with me
And now you're trying to desperately
But I'm tongue tied and terrified of what I'll say
But I never told you everything
I'm losing hope and fading dreams
And every single memory along the way

And then we both go down together
We may stay there forever
And just try to get up
And I'm sorry
This wasn't easy
When I asked you, believe me
You never let go
But I let go

And we both go down together
And stay there forever
Just try to get up

And then we both go down together
We may stay there forever
And just try to get up
And I'm sorry
This wasn't easy
When I asked you, believe me
You never let go
But I let go...
