lyrics

It started out harsh, it was sorrowful and lonely
I held onto the only thing I could
Pathetic scraps of anger and the feeling I'd been wronged
I'd say "Things never turn out the way they should"
All my friends weathered the moping over your
Mother aside from the pope she's
Never seemed to really care much for men
I'd bitch about my bruises and the path that you were choosing
Because it was the only broken leg on which to stand
And I'd given my all for your hand

They say time makes all well, but from what I can tell
That's just a crock of motivational shit
I don't want to forget all the scars that I've gained
I want to be happy living with them

I told you I loved you the day
That I drove you home with me
It was just like the stills in my
Mind from the films that
Portrayed life in a different way

I smiled everyday and though it's painful to say
I had to remember that this is your life too
It was clear your heart had wandered and you
Wondered if you could squander
Anymore of your time arguing with me
I'd hate to see you frown love, so we had to let it drown love
Cause you deserve to feel the way I did with you
And when it feels I may be dying I take refuge in trying
To remember that this is all for the best
And at least I know you more than the rest

They say you have to let go of the ones you love most
I wouldn't loosen my grip without a fight
But I'm beginning to find sometimes loving someone
Is braving the dark so they can find the light

I wanted to hold you the rest of my days
But you're not meant to be here with me
So I wish you the best as I walk on my own
I hope one day you find what you wanted from me
