I have never been more confused in my life. I don't sleep, I don't eat, I pace from the kitchen to my bed, from the bathroom to my bed, from the living room chair to my bed. I can't seem to get a grasp on anything. I can't seem to make sense of the smallest things anymore. I know with everything inside me, Cedar is where I want to be. I just, don't know if I can take the heartache in person. I don't know that I can walk around the corner and see him with her. I could tell him a thousand times to just turn around and walk away if he sees me on the street, but I know he won't, and I know I won't want him to. He keeps saying he thought it was done with her, I'm hearing they're not together, that she doesn't put forth an effort, that she's 8 hours away now, she'll be 6 hours when he moves. I heard, what I have been waiting 10 months to hear, what he's been denying all this time, and then he took it away. Why should I be surprised, he always takes it away. I wonder if he'll ever know I bought the plane ticket, but not from Vegas, but to Vegas, I got all the way to the confirmation screen, and then there it was. Him saying yet again, I thought it was done with her, and I backed out. I saw how this would play out, I'd be sitting the airport with Ryder, texting whatcha doin? like we always do, and he won't respond. I'll be sitting there waiting to answer when asks back, waiting for you in the airport, and that message won't ever come because he's with her. I'll have flown us all the way out there, to sit in the Vegas airport all weekend. Just to show the kind of effort I want to put in. Fly out there 3 weeks before I move out there, just so he knew I was serious. But I didn't get to do that, I never get to show my effort with him. The effort I have put in, goes unnoticed. All because of that stupid letter. A moment of insecurity started this whole thing in motion. I told him, I told him what would happen if he read it, and he lied. He told me no I wouldn't lose him, no it would be okay, nothing would change. Everything changed. Everything. I hate the person he's made me. I hate the person loving him has made me. I hate that he knows he can do whatever he wants, whenever he wants to me, and I'll still be lagging like a lost puppy. Just staring at him, following him, with eyes that say love me, please just love me. I told him last night that if he thought things were done, he needed to keep them done, or he shouldn't have said anything about giving us a chance. I know why he said it, because he can't be alone. He thought she left him, and knew I'd be there. I know that, I do. I just thought, if he would at least try, we could find together who we used to be. Cause we were good. We were really good. We laughed all the time, we never ran out of things to say, we bickered and fought and made up 20 times a day, we'd stay up way too late, and drag ass in the morning. I'd ignore him to clear my head, and he'd text and call and IM until I finally caved and talked to him. He used to fight for me, I'm the only one left fighting for someone now. When I should be fighting for myself, I'm still here fighting for him. We'd text each other that we were up, we'd never go a night without saying sleep well, unless he passed out on me, and he'd text it anyway with an apology when he woke up a half hour later. We were the last text at night, and the first in the morning. We'd sit and bullshit all day while he was at work. We'd do what we needed to do and start all over again at 9 at night. It was like clockwork for a while, a habit. . . and I just thought, if I was there, every day, and able to see him, and touch him, and finally be in each others company, we could find those people again. They were really good people. They really cared about each other. They were above all else, best friends.

I have no place to land in Utah, there's a house in Wausau.
I have no one in Utah anymore, there's friends in Wausau.
There's no job and no money in Utah, there's a transfer and my old job in Wausau.
There's no him in Wausau. I want my best friend back. I miss him every day.




Baby Baby
When we first met, I never felt something so strong
You were like my lover and my best friend
All wrapped into one with a ribbon on it
And all of a sudden you went and left
I didn't know how to follow
It's like a shock that spun me around
And now my heart's dead
I feel so empty and hollow

And I'll never give myself to another the way I gave it to ya (to ya)
Don't even recognize the ways you hurt me, do ya (do ya)?
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you are the one to blame
And now I feel like - ooh!

You're the reason why I'm thinking
I don't wanna smoke on these cigarettes no more
I guess that's what i get for wishful thinking
Should've never let you enter my door
Next time you wanna go on and leave
I should just let you go on and do it
'Cause now I'm using like I bleed

It's like I checked in to rehab
And baby, you're my disease
It's like I checked in to rehab
And baby, you're my disease
I've gotta check in to rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
I've gotta check in to rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease

Damn, ain't it crazy when you're loveswept
You'd do anything for the one you love
Cause anytime that you needed me, I'd be there
Its like you were my favorite drug
The only problem was that you was using me
In a different way that I was using you
But now that I know that it's not meant to be
You gotta go, I gotta wean myself off of you

And I'll never give myself to another the way I gave it to ya (to ya)
Don't even recognize the ways you hurt me, do ya?
It's gonna take a miracle to bring me back
And you are the one to blame
Cause now I feel like - ooh!

You're the reason why I'm thinking
I don't wanna smoke on these cigarettes no more
I guess that's what i get for wishful thinking
Should've never let you enter my door
Next time you wanna go on and leave
I should just let you go on and do it
'Cause now I'm using like I bleed

It's like I checked in to rehab
And baby, you're my disease
It's like I checked in to rehab
And baby, you're my disease
I've gotta check in to rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
I've gotta check in to rehab
'Cause baby you're my disease
