Strangers

Well it’s too bad
You didn’t like it
When you pushed my buttons
I didn’t fight back
My calm mood saved me
While your temper drained me
You pushed too hard
I couldn’t take it
And it was obvious
We wouldn’t make it
But I must confess
That I tried my hardest

You couldn’t think outside the lines
I’m sorry that
We wasted time
We’re all but strangers now
Passing on the street
Without a peripheral glance
You had your chance

Well I guess that
I always felt like
I messed everything up
And couldn't do right
My heart was failing
What my eyes would tell me
But just because I couldn't see it
That didn't mean I couldn't feel it
I was stuck between me
And what I wanted to be

You had your chance
To prove me wrong
To write me off
To push me far away
I’m sorry that I wasted your time
The face in the picture
Used to be mine
