No Regrets (XXV)

Tell me a story

Where we all change

And we'd live our lives together

And not estranged

I didn't lose my mind

It was mine to give away

Couldn't stay to watch me cry

You didn't have the time

So I softly slip away

No regrets

They don't work

No regrets now

They only hurt

Sing me a love song

Drop me a line

Suppose it's just a point of view

But they tell me I'm doing fine

I know from the outside

We looked good for each other

Felt things were going wrong when

You didn't like my mother

I don't want to hate

But that's all you've left me with

A bitter aftertaste and a fantasy

Of how we all could live

No regrets

They don't work

No regrets now

They only hurt

I know they're still talking

The demons in your head

If I could just stop hating you

I'd feel sorry for us instead

Remember the photographs insane

The ones where we all laugh so lame

We were having the time of our lives

Well, thank you, it was a real blast

Write me a love song

Drop me a line

Suppose it's just a point of view

But they tell me I'm doing fine

Everything I wanted to be

Every time I walked away

Every time you told me to leave

I just wanted to stay

Every time you looked at me

And every time you smiled

I felt so vacant

You treat me like a child

I loved the way we used to laugh

I loved the way we used to smile

Often, I sit down

And I think of you for a while

Then it passes me by

And I think of someone else instead

I guess the love we once had

Is officially
