Sincerity

I didn’t feel the need to apologize for what I thought was right
But I will anyway because it’s just not worth the fight
I can say it was too soon, that I wasn’t ready and prepared
I can say I felt controlled, confused, helpless, and scared
But none of that is the reason for the problems we faced
More that it seemed like my whole life had been replaced
I’m not saying you made it worse, it was better for awhile
But eventually I felt constantly accused and on trial
Things don’t always work out the way that they should
And even though I loved you, life just can’t be that good
It was a dream, nothing more; I wish that it were real
I wish that when I said it I meant more than what I feel
What’s done is done; I can’t go back and change the past
Let us live with the memories, surely some must still last
You’re better off without me, and I can say the same
There’s no reason now for us to burden any blame
