Never Being Friends

There's so much history
An unforeseen turn of events
Oh, how they came to be
In retrospect, yes, we did see it coming

In a way, we've been way apart
For long, since first taste of bitterness
In a way, we've been way below par
For long, it's been a hindrance

It's breaking my heart to break it again
I scratched through these walls but I'll have to rebuild them
Keep to myself, wait for my will to unbend
All for the sake of never being friends

I think about how our memories always seemed like ones I'd return to fondly
Instead, it's just the biggest mess of paperwork spread out on my desk, titled "if only"
Oh, how they came to be
In retrospect, I would succeed in
Making you want me enough
But it's the pipe dream I shouldn't chase
It's not love from a good place
Even if it was, it's worse to debate

It's breaking my heart to break it again
I scratched through these walls but I'll have to rebuild them
Keep to myself, wait for my will to unbend
All for the sake of never being friends

We had happiness, I don't feel the need to disgrace it with shame
We had happiness, I don't feel the need to displace it with blame
And I can forgive you and learn to let it go, I'll try my best to seek betterment
And I might forgive you but I have to say no, and hope you'll let me leave with the sentiment

It's breaking my heart to break it again
I scratched through these walls but I'll have to rebuild them
Keep to myself, wait for my will to unbend
All for the sake of never being friends

It's breaking my heart to break it again
I scratched through these walls but I'll have to rebuild them
Wait for when it stops feeling like being condemned
All for the sake of never being friends
