Isolation - Counterparts

The best news I’ve ever heard was when you said you wouldn’t leave

Because I know the distance would tear us apart.

And all the things you said,

Wouldn’t mean a thing if you weren’t here with me.

So as you turn your back to me,

I just want to let you know that I could never do this to you.

This is where our roads divide and they split in two,

And I will never see you again.

But I respect your choice.

The familiar pain sets in again,

But I can’t let this drag me down.

It’s things like this that made me who I am today.

It’s thing like this that helped to shape/make me who I am today,

It’s every hardship that I’ve faced.

And I’ve lost hope in myself,

But I just want you to know:

As everyday goes by,

I must accept that you’re now living your own life
