I know it will kill me,
When the time comes that we say goodbye
I hope I'll be strong when I look in your eyes
Girl I've never felt so much just to let it go
But before our one last kiss
I just want you to know

That after I never stop wanting to die
After I never feel nothing for the rest of my life
After the hell I know that I'll go through
After the heartache and tears and lonely and hurtin'
One night stands and the drinking ain't workin'
And missing you has near killed me a time or two
Then after that I should be over you

And to think that I knew better not to mess with my heart
And why I never stopped this right there from the start
But now I'm here between lost and nowhere
Drifting over the edge
I'm past the point of gone too far like a bad dream with no end

That after I never stop wanting to die
After I never feel nothing for the rest of my life
After the hell I know that I'll go through
After the heartache and tears and lonely and hurtin'
One night stands and the drinking ain't workin'
And missing you has near killed me a time or two
Then after that I should be over you
I should be over you
How I'm gonna get over you oh girl
So tell me how will I get over you
