LYRICS

I would rather go
A million miles on my own Then have to grow old
And never have your hand to hold
I died inside
The day you said goodbye

I've got these things inside
That are eating me alive
If I open up and tell a friend, I feel better all the while
Even as a child, when I never even cried
If I open up and tell a friend, I feel better all the while

I just don't know
Where you're going any more
Just as I felt so close
You turned around and shut the door
I don't see why
This has to be goodbye

Now I've got these things inside
That are eating me alive
If I open up and tell a friend, I feel better all the while
Even as a child, when I never even cried
If I open up and tell a friend, I feel better all the while

It's okay, it's okay
That is what she said to me
On that day, on that day
When she turned her back and walked away
Saying, hey, this doesn't have to be the end
Then tell me why does this feel like a mistake?
It feels like the biggest mistake

Now I've got these things inside
That are eating me alive
If I open up and tell a friend, I feel better all the while
Even as a child, when I never even cried
And everything around me was withering and dying
I just pushed it all inside and kept it out of the light
If I open up and tell a friend, I feel better all the while
