title : breaking point
* inspired by nicole tolentino

I've finally hit this wave of realization
I wanted too much, I had this high expectation
I've been going outta my mind
my decisions are continually undefined

without you, my life's been a mess
no lies or deceit, this I must confess
it's no longer easy, living life day by day
no words are expressed, but I've got so much to say

constantly seeing you in the halls,
continues to break me more and more
it's been a while since we've talked
I wonder what life has in store

because the only thing we ever do
is pass by each other by
a glance of caring is exchanged
but no words are shared, not even a hi

this pain's been passing through me,
and it's not getting any better
nothing has changed and it hurts more than before
we can't even look at each other

the memories flashed back
into my mind of what it used to be
it just didn't work out
things between you and me

I'm not yet ready to say our goodbyes
but you don't get it, I'm so done with your lies
you meant a lot to me, more than you could ever believe
I never meant that much to you, yet looks can deceive

we've once knew each other
every detail and every thought
but now two strangers passing by
as if we've forgotten the past we've got


I just wanna break down and cry
I don't know what to do
