How Could You

I've spent too much time
Crying out my eyes over you
I've spent my childhood
Wishing there was more I could do
I left it all behind
And tried to make a new start
One by one, I reached down
To pick the pieces of my heart

Chorus:

How could you be so selfish
And let yourself down like that?
How could you be so cruel
And choose not to come back?
How could you let me fall
When I needed you to stay?
How could you...just fade away?

The life that I live
Is not the one I lived before
These faces I see
Don't feel friendly anymore
Their words are painful
Their smiles hide their lies
I want to join their laughter
But I'm broken up inside

(Chorus)

How dare you not think about
what would happen to you or me?
It was lying right in front of you,
how could you not see?
I'm holding back, can't move on
It just won't feel the same
No wonder where I go, the past
Brings me back here once again

(Chorus)

How could you let me feel so low?
How could you choose to let go?
How could you break my spirit
And tear down the walls I had
How could you...
Why did you...
Fade away
