I'm sorry.
I really am
I know it doesn't hurt you anymore
But it never stopped haunting me
I wish I hadn't let you go
I let me friends tell me
They told me to let you go
And that doesn't even begin to cover it
I shouldn't have listened to them, I know
No matter what you did for me
It wasn't good enough
I'm sorry
It was.
I just couldn't hear you
Over every all the other voices invading
Invading our relationship
Telling me to leave
To leave you behind
I listened.
It's my fault
I wish I could say I loved you
But I didn't
If I did I wouldn't have listened
I know.
You've got her now.
You don't care anymore
But it's still hurting me
I would call it heart break
I feel bad
Not pain though
More regret.
I wish I could say I love you now
But I don't
I just wish did when I had the chance
Be cause now I don't
And you probably don't remember
But the memories won't let me go.
The memories of when it was us
Me and you and no one else
We weren't the best couple
Young love more like
Awkward and nervous
But never more happy in each other's presence
I still would never call it love though
I have no idea what that is
And if this really is love
I hate it.
But it's not
Maybe you love her now
Maybe.
I won't wait for you
Because I know you aren't coming back
I left you
You have all the right to do as you please
I let this end
I let us fall apart and then
I cut the last string holding us together
The memories
They won't leave
Making me cower at night
Crying for a second chance I'll never get
Because I still remember us
But it's my fault
I'm a dumbfuck
I'm sorry.
