When you were here, I felt distant
And now that you're far away, I feel closer, it's different
Many opportunities wasted by my past
I shot you down every time, for sex, you asked
I wanted to come over, be there all damn night
But I couldn't give you my heart, my ex consumed my time
But now that I've burned away everything that belonged to her
I am feeling free, ready, willing, and my past is just a blur
I still can't say whether we would've worked out
But I can say I would've tried my best, no doubt!
I would've spend these dark ages building, making you a fire
And if I couldn't make flames, I would use my body to keep you warm, fulfilling your every desire
Maybe every word I'm saying now is hurting you
Maybe every thing I'm saying is destroying you
But I can't help it, my pen keeps writing on these pages
And my heart keeps wanting to know about you, keep me updated
I'm sorry I couldn't love you when you were here
But it wasn't entirely my fault, my mind was filled with fear
I had just been broken by a girl who said "all the right words"
And me, a gullible fuck, believed every syllable and was left hurt
So understand me when I say that you are not to blame
People fear, laugh, cry but only a few change
And that's me, This is a new beginning
I wish you all the best and I hope you start off better than it ended with me
