can't look back
at what we were
i still don't understand it
can't think of you
and where we stood
i still can't face it
was i the bad one
the whole time?
did i not give you
every chance to be mine?
could your heart
ever truly turn
from the thought
of her
to the reality
of me?
how could i have
shown you
all i had
and still not see
that you never looked
at me
as any more
than a distraction
of the pain
you left behind
(blind)
