At 17 my best friend and I began falling for each other....me harder than her.
I'm torn within
Between this hate and your love
Between me and you
I know what to do but can't do it
I know what to say but....

I'm torn within
This hate I was given was my love
But your's made it my burden
I know what to choose but can't choose it
I know which to pick but....

I hate to see you worry
And I hate to think you'de be hurt
By my ignorance inside

A tear in your eye
Kills me more than my hate
More than myself

I'm torn within
And in the end I know the path I will walk
But I know I'll be looking back
At the hate and the fear that I know is inside me
Inside my....

Afraid to speak those three words
I refrain to just caring
Caring more for you than anything else
Yet hating myself for my actions
I'm torn within

So I'll play the role I've been given
Walking down the road cut for me
Holding on to you
