[01:38.74]She met a kid named Joey, knew he had a crush
[01:41.49]Always made her laugh and said things to make her blush
[01:43.92]But she tried so hard to pay him no attention
[01:46.62]Scared her past would eventually ruin the friendship

[01:51.55]He said, "If you don't give me your heart beautiful

[02:13.46]I just wish you knew you're the reason that my heart beats
[02:16.20]Always made me smile ever since the day you saw me
[02:18.59]You were my guardian angel when I had nobody
[02:21.43]Yo, but there's something I haven't told you
[02:23.66]For six years there was something that I had to go through
[02:26.36]That shattered my spirit and my dreams, I know you can see it

[02:32.04]My mom was never there to see, I hope when she reads this
[02:34.58]She ODs on the very thing that broke us to pieces
[02:37.46]You were the only person I ever loved
[02:39.85]And it kills me inside to know that I was the one
[02:42.59]To ruin what we had and I knew this would happen
[02:44.93]Yo, I just thought me and you would've lasted
[02:47.97]Knife to her wrist as she dropped to the floor
[02:50.56]But right be before she cut she heard a knock at the door

[02:55.95]I wonder if you'd leave and I wonder if you'd stay
[02:58.74]I wonder if you'd see me in a different way
[03:01.23]Its hard to hold this in, I think about it everyday"
