lyrics

I spent the first year waiting for the rut to end
And in a moment it was perfect, then a mess again
And I could tell you needed more but I was not enough
You did your best, that's all I asked, for you to let me love
You weren't the first and I can promise you won't be the last
You think I'd learn but I've been blessed with an unsteady hand
And I've been shaking trying to make you pick apart the times
You let me in and shut me out before I cleared my eyes

And if you're happy now
Then who am I to tell

I spent the last year wishing things had stayed the same
But we were young and you were different, our perceptions changed
And I could tell you needed something, I was not enough
You made it clear to me, then cut me off and strung along
Every sentence you projected as a dying friend
A loyal ally in a world when it's been badly bent
And now I lost you to an utter lack of common sense
I thought you'd find it if you looked but you seem quite content

And if you're happy now
Then who am I to tell
I'll spend the better part
Of my twenties waiting out
For you to come around
Catch up on hallowed ground
Make up for time we lost
Like nothing else is gone
