It's not a project or experiment, and it's not mere sentiment
It's a testament to how it started and how far it went
It's about what it meant when two became more than friends
Where it went wrong and how you never really dealt with it
-
Reminiscing on it with the 20/20 hindsight
Trying to convince yourself it just wasn't timed right
... and maybe you're right, it's hard to say
but neither of you wanted it to end that way
-
It's a long road to the path of healing and forgiveness
And you can't deny the reasons you first got into this
But nothing is forever, hearts and people change
And sometimes escape is what you need to stay sane
-
It does no good to dwell on a past you can't change
But now you're less likely to fall prey to mind games
So learn from the past, but keep marching forward on beat
In other words, you gotta be sorry-not-sorry
