Because of You
Acronycal Lyrics

As I lie here wide awake
Unable to sleep, my consciousness is filled with thoughts of you.

Still remember smiles that you would make
Your happy expressions and gestures that you made are still crystal clear in my mind.

Told me that it's okay
You reassured me that everything is alright.

That it's better right this way
You said, leaving is the better choice.

How was I supposed to make it through her
I don't know how to survive the burden of your absence.

Our lives were blown together
Our lives intersected, we were brought together like the wind carries objects.

Now they're far away
But now, our paths have diverged, and we are far apart.

Couldn't last forever
The relationship we had had to come to an end.

Begging you to stay
I pleaded with you not to leave, but it fell on deaf ears.

But you made me believe
Despite everything, you made me believe in the greater good.

There's more to life than what we see
There is more to existence than just what's easily observable.

So much more than there's meant to be
Life is full of surprises and tend to manifest differently from our initial expectations.

Never thought I'd lose your touch
I never envisioned losing touch with you.

In the end it's always worth so much
Ultimately, what we shared signifies a great deal.

Now we can never say it didn't matter anyway
We can't ignore the reality that it was important.

Cause all that's left is memories of you
The only thing left behind is reminiscence of your time with me.

Second time and I know what we're looking for
I have a better understanding of what I desire, now that I've gone through this twice.

Hurried up to just slow down
I initially hastened, only to realize that sometimes it's better to slow things down.

Always up for more
I'm always ready for additional experience.

Life could just take it's battles
The challenges we face in life mold and transform us.

And lead me back to you
They could even guide me back to you eventually.

Tonight we'd share this one last laugh
For one last time, we'll share an enjoyable moment.

For all that we'd been through
To commemorate everything that we experienced and shared earlier.

But you made me believe
Nonetheless, you made me think positively.

Believe
Believe in myself and the future.

Made me believe
You gave me the reassurance and confidence that I required.
