All just wasted time,

that I'll never get back.

Where was my head,

What was I thinking.

Should have seen we were dead,

instead of all those tears I was spilling.

Those promises you fed,

sure left me dreaming.

It's not right that our love made me want to die,

it's not right that for you I was ready to lay it all aside.

You took a heart that was full of hope,

and made it feel like it could no longer cope.

I can finally forgive myself,

for the thoughts you left in my head.

I never want to go to that place again,

never want to feel what I was feeling then.
