Is there a need to go be charming?

These days no hearts are pure

And even I myself am damned

For thinking that I could be anything less than selfish

And we all make mistakes

Based on uncertain tastes

Regretting our defining traits

And so I have laid this bed to lie

The once clean sheets no longer clean nor dry

But some things aren't meant for washing

We scrub until it's clean but it's not

And if we accept that

There might be a chance for us

We once were believers

If we could find the need to believe that we should be partners

Well then maybe we could succeed at living well

For once admitting the bleed of our mixed colors

Left alone to mourn our loss

Reminiscing our cause

Cause we betrayed us

Seeking more than our trust

Am I the one to lead?

I'm forever driving

Wearily craving your seats

But not fully willing to be

The one who relents

While not looking back at events

Admitting that I am the one who would like my years back

Have we betrayed us?

Are we to blame?

Left alone to mourn our loss

Reminiscing our cause

Cause we betrayed us

Seeking more

More than our trust would let us begrudge what we had lost

More than our trust would let us be lost
