The regular text and the italics are two different stories told parallel.

I have a million memories
With you
But I’ve never seen you smile so bright
Laugh so hard
As now
When I’m no longer with you
I have a million memories
With you
But I’ve never seen you wear so much make-up
Swear so much
As now
When I’m no longer with you
You have found new people
Who know how to bring out the true you
Like I never could
You have found new people
Who know how to show a different side of you
That I didn’t know was there
I suppose it’s a good thing
Perhaps very good
I think it’s a bad thing
Probably very bad
I want to see you happy
Alive and well
I want to see you okay
At least fine
I just wish you could
Give me the satisfaction
Of knowing that I helped you get there
I hope I didn’t
Lead you
To where you are now
Because I put my all in you
When you were all alone
Because I put my all in you
When no one else believed
And you’ve moved on
Without me
And you’ve taken a new turn
Without me
I shouldn’t be upset
The ulitimate goal was your happiness
Not mine
And now you have that
I hope
I know that you’re embarrassed
By me when I’m around
And I’m sorry
But I can’t leave
Not now
I wish you needed me
I think you need me
But I don’t know how to leave
But I don’t know how to stay
