Tell me why we're here now
and tell me why I love you
Tell me where you came from
and tell me where we're going

I gave you something,
something broken and shattered
but it was all I had to give
and you took it with you
wherever you went to,
wherever you are because
you sure as hell aren't here
with me anymore

Tell me why you pretended
and tell me why I cared
Tell me where you ended up
and tell me where I stand

You gave me nothing,
a handful of empty promises
Was that all you had to give?
I held onto it, cherished it
For that one moment
you made me glad to be alive
but you didn't even mean to
You just wanted my heart

So, tell me, why I'm wasting my time
and tell me why you're not
Tell me where I'll be tomorrow
and tell me where I'll see you
I really don't like the way this one turned out.
It was hard to write it but ummm yeah, it's part of the "The Stars Fade" series.

Seriously, I nearly cried reading this.
I think most people'd be able to relate to this in some way or other.
I love it, very well written.
