Nothing Lasts Forever - Hollow Front

Sometimes I think about those days

When we wore fake smiles on our face

Pretending that we were happy

When nothing could be further from the truth

I convinced myself

The life I was living was good enough

Trapped together

To have and to hold

In sickness and in health

Until death do we part

But nothing lasts forever

Goodbye to you

I want you to know

This was the hardest thing

I’ve ever had to do

So goodbye to you

I will always remember

What it felt like to be broken in two

I awoke from my life one day

Like it had all been a dream

Once so blind it was sickening

I forced myself to move on

And watched you fade away

And even though I miss you

That doesn’t mean I need you in my life

After everything we’ve been through

It took me all this time to finally say goodbye

This is a chance for me

To finally get a few things off my chest

It’s been so hard to admit

I wish the best for you

Just thought you should know

That I forgive you

And not a day goes by

When I don’t wonder what my life could be like

I guess we’ll never know

What we could’ve been

Because the past is dead

Nothing lasts forever

That’s what you said to me

So let’s mourn the ghost

Of what we will never be

Nothing lasts forever

The words are always on repeat

So let’s bury the corpse

Of what we were

And finally be free

And even though I miss you

That doesn’t mean I need you in my life

After everything we’ve been through

It took me all this time to finally say goodbye

This is a chance for me

To finally get a few things off my chest

It’s been so hard to admit

I wish the best for you

Just thought you should know

That I forgive you

And not a day goes by

When I don’t wonder what my life could be like

I guess we’ll never know

What we could’ve been

Because the past is dead
