Holding on for nothing

You shattered my heart when you left
and i thought i loved you still
but im trying to find the peices
Though i know i never will

Why did i hold on so long
to something that wasnt there?
i hurt for so many months
and it just wasnt fair

Why did i put myself through that?
Cause myself so much pain
trying to hold on to a love that was gone
Holding on with nothing to gain

And even though I hurt no more
My heart is still in tatters
but i have said goodbye to you
because my life and friends are what matters
