Disclaimer: I do not own American Idiot

How couldn't you have known?

I'm a wreck now

A shell of what I used to be

Empty and broken

You were my savior

My guide through the night

My light in the darkness

My everything

And now you're gone.

You left me alone

Alone and without protection

Left to fend for myself

But, I'm too weak to go on

I can't make it through this life without you

Without you by my side

I feel lonely

More alone then I ever have before

You made me stronger

You made me complete

And I know

You'd laugh if you heard this

But, now I'd do anything

To hear your laughter again

To see your face once more

But you're gone.

And this time

You're not coming back

I'm leaving now

A new start...

A new life...

And maybe I'll move on.

Maybe I won't.

I might be joining you sooner than you think.

Because without you here

It's like a part of me died with you

How couldn't you have known?

You ment everything to me

I'd die for you

But I know now

That you wouldn't die any other way

Then by your own hand

You never know what will happen next

I might see you soon

Because remember what I said

"You do crazy things...

When you're in love..."

How couldn't you have known?
