inside

bottled up inside
are the words i never said
the feelings that i hide
the lines i never read

you see it in my eyes
read it on my face
trapped inside are lies
of the past i can't replace

with memories that linger-
won't seem to go away
why can't i be happier
today's a brand new day

yesterdays are over
even though the hurtings not
nothing lasts forever
i must cherish what i've got

don't take my love for granted
for soon it will be gone-
all you ever wanted
of the love you thought you'd won

the hurt i'm feeling now
won't disappear overnight
but someday somehow 
everything will turn out right

no more wishing for the past
it wasn't meant to be 
it didn't last forever 
so i have to set him free!
