Don't you see,
That you're nothing more to me,
Than just another face?
A face in the crowd?
Oh, and don't you see,
What we had,
Was never real?
Just another game we played?
Oh, and don't you know,
I don't care anymore?
About your wants and needs?
Oh, why can't you see,
That we're done?
Even though we'd only just begun,
We're done.
We were never meant to be,
Can't you see?
The life we thought we'd live,
Isn't meant to be?
I'm sorry.
For all the lies,
The dreams.
I apologize.
We just aren't meant to be.
Goodbye.

Haha I hadn't thought of it as being from the pov of the player but more as from somebpdy eealizing that a relationship wasn't gonna work. Thanks for the input though! :)

Honestly I would of never off thought to write from the perspective of the player.  It's a big change from the whole Victims POV.  I really like it good job! :)  Keep writing!!!
