Blissful Ignorance

I know I can't let this ruin us.
I can't let it stick to our friendship
But what if your mother had turned around
And knowingly holding your heart in her hands,
waits for you to try to grab it
and crushes it to sand in her hand.

I know I have you
but they were my family.
at least I didn't know what they were saying behind my back.
now that i do, i'd given anything to take it back
to just keep it to myself.
I'd do anything to stop this.

I look at you
and it hurts
and my heart breaks

I look at you
and i remember
the pain
I remember the earth shaking underneath.
I remember.
