This is worth it's weight in words
to give in now would be absurd
So keep your retracted retractions to yourself

This plays upon my sympathies,
I shouldn't have come
I know I should leave,
but they said,
but they said
I should see this for myself

And now these sighs are severing
And I was saving everything,
can't believe,
I believed,
I believed that this might help

Making amends, seems so far out of hand
still holding strong to where we stand
must of lost all sight of how we ever felt

gettin even,
gettin even,
gettin ready to fight
gettin smug,
gettin ugly,
and lost all sense of pride,
an I'm forgetting,
I'm forgetting
why I wanted to cry,
and I'm still waiting on a day no hearts would die
