hindsighted

filled with hate
overcome with love
pierced by an arrow but i'm still a dove

injured kittens are just as cute
I don't know why I bother, this point it moot

no matter how angry you think you can make me
you won't win, you'll never break me

you choked me with infidelity
now I see, the problem wasn't you it was me

I was being selfish
I wanted you to love me

you did love me, that's not what I meant
I wanted too much of you
asked too much from you
and now my despair screwed up my lament

Hugged you too tight
kissed you too much
we burned out our love by embracing the passionate rush

I should have let go
I should have walked away
we could have come back fresh on another day

endurance burned on
my lesson I learned
the grass is always green if you take care of the lawn

it's probably too late
maybe that's fate

I just wanted you to know that I'm sorry I asked you to wait
