She tries for the honesty but the truth gets in
the way
Cause I know inside what she can't bring herself
to say
There's something dying deep in her heart I feel
it when I touch her hand
So I tell her a lie when I tell her I
understand
But inside I die a little each day inside I feel
her slipping away
Inside if she knew I hurt this way inside she'd
find a reason to stay
And so I must keep this broken heart down deep
inside
She turns to look at me trying to speak her
mind
A thousand reasons in search of a single
rhyme
And suddenly it occurs to me she's trying to say
goodbye
So I give her a smile and tell her that I'll be
alright
Oh but inside I die a little each day...
Sometimes love will slip away it's hard to say
just why
Is it something that's said or is it instead
something that just simply dies
Inside if she knew I hurt this way...
