lyrics

I know that it hurts to see…the bitter truth.
It’s kinda hard to take this in…the feelings they consume.
But I know with time these things will mend, I know this now. Cause I’ve seen these things dissolve before.
Time is a factor, as it mends what we can’t ignore.

I know that I’d love to find…a bit of peace.
But is it dumb to think I could grow without these things?
It took years to find the words to say…now I see the truth.
And it scares me as I look away. I’m drifting further from the feelings I thought I knew.

I can't believe that people act maliciously. It's like all they do is sit and cast the blame, unchanged. I know that they will never see, how they act so selfishly. So I’ll dry my eyes and learn to find a way, to be, a little more in tune and less angry.

I wish I could find a way…to live without.
The love I have for them and the fears that come with doubt. Still I hope my friends would find some way to see this clear. But I guess that time can fool us all…I sit and wish that everything would just disappear.

And as you throw away...all the things we’d do.
Do you ever sit and think about the people that you knew?
I laugh and doubt that you will change, cause I’ve seen the truth. As I walk away…please not again…I’m drifting further from the things that I thought were true.

I can't believe that you would act maliciously. It's like all you do is sit and cast the blame, unchanged. I know that you will never see, how you act so selfishly. So I’ll try my best to learn and find a way, to be, a little less like you and more like me.

As this unfolds, I’ll let it all go.
I’ve got to, let these things roll off before they take control.
Wish for change, staying the same, how I hope that you would grow, but now I know…I’m a fool to think you’d learn this on your own.

I can’t believe that we possess all the things we need yet they throw this all away and never change our ways.
Are we doomed to fail and always be bitter and broken from the things we’ve seen? All that’s left to do is try to make a change…today, as I tell myself these things will be ok…someday….I sail alone and start to drift away…it’ll be ok…it’ll be, it’ll be ok…
