I watch the world imploding And it implodes much too slowly I sit here burning a whole new bridge Just to be sure that I am lonely
But this time is different Because I know it was the last The last chance I'll ever have To hold a love that was steadfast
Because here within slow motion My mind takes in the score You claimed to love me for who I am Just before you cast the blame once more
And then you say you're sharing feelings So, I assume that's how you feel Going off the words you've shared I can only assume your words are real
So, if you feel I did this and that And I did other things you didn't like I tell you that I accept that blame Because you are always right
Then that will spark another fire You can claim, it's my job to attend it Because you were only sharing feelings The blame I felt was never what you intended
All the while I'm changing things Just trying to be closer to the one That you dreamt that I could be If I just wasn't so troubled and undone
You love me for the me That you tell yourself I am But not the me I've always been Or the man that you had planned
You can't accept me when I'm at my worst As my darkness eclipses my whole soul And despite all my many warnings You send your feelings that cajole
