self reflection

you know how i've been. you know how i'm going to react.

cause behind its door there's nothing to keep my fingers warm
and all i find are souvenirs from better times
before the gleam of your taillights fading east
to find yourself a better life.
and it's hard not to have regret, you just can't help it. there are so many "i wish" moments that i'm longing.
i was searching for some legal document
as the rain beat down on the hood
when i stumbled upon pictures i tried to forget
and that's how this idea was drilled into my head
when you can do nothing, what can you do?
cause it's too important
to stay the way it's been
i know this is for our own good. for my own good.
there's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
and now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
and here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
lying awake at night
