Nothing can shield you from the silence
Nights spent on his side of the bed
Praying for help to please stop crying
My life just got turned on its head
They fail to explain how complex love is
Like why I mostly miss him as a friend
Or how big of a blow it's for my ego
That she might be better for him
But I wanna tell you I got through
The hardest of times on my own
I made some mistakes, I made a few
But I learned that I am strong
And just because it hurts, doesn't mean it isn't worth it
And even if it stings, it's just a temporary thing
No one said that changing, won't cost you love, won't make you cry
But it will all make sense when the growing pains subside
