Endless buckets may be filled
 By those tears that I have shed
 For eons I hoped to be fulfilled
 That it is you that I would wed

 Several moons have passed me by
 Several trials to say goodbye
 But my heart has fooled my mind
 Leaving even my dignity behind

 You give me strength through your smiles
 And through those lovely eyes of yours
 While my reality burns up in piles
 They turn to ash as I take this course

 I'm worse than that clown on tv
 For being a fool for you to see
 The clown does it, for money cheers
 While I do it, for my own sad tears

 Yet this girl doesn't even know
 The self-infliction I had on me
 The love that I proudly claim to be so
 Was only returned, unopened, to me

 I always kept telling myself to stop
 All these illusions musn't go on top
 I better start letting her go
 As I start seeing this girl as a foe

 No, I am not bitter and will never be
 But I'll take the road that leads away
 For our love may not meant to be
 Fool no more, I'm going my way
