It's Not

It’s not like I wanted to cry
It seemed the tears just came
It’s not like I want to feel bad
But still I hurt just the same

It’s not like you had to leave
You just wanted another life
It’s not like I had to wait
But no other option seemed right

It’s not like I’m gonna move on
‘Cause the world only pauses for you
It’s not like I can accept you’re gone
Reality shouldn’t be the truth

It’s not like I’m falling apart
The mirror proves I’m one
It’s not like you stole my heart
I offered it; the deal was done

It’s not like I’m suffering
My smile proves I’m okay
It’s not like it was easy
I forced myself to stay

It’s not like I can’t be on my own
For without you I’m still me
It’s not like I’m fine with this
With you, that’s where I want to be

It’s not like I’m changing my mind
‘Cause I need you still it seems
It’s not like I hate all these days
But I prefer living in my dreams

It’s not like I don’t love you
Because you know my love’s sincere
It’s not like I’m real lonely
I just wish you still were here
