The problem is that I can see you in my rear view mirror waving good bye every time I try to steer towards something better,
And I reverse back into your arms
In a way that sends my heart crashing back into your atmosphere.
The problem is that I can see me in your bed for hours on end
Researching your skin with my keen eye
So I can kiss at what you would call imperfections.
The problem is that the rose colored glasses I put on
The day I laid on the couch with you and told you I loved you
Haven't lose their hue, haven't lost their tint on my world.
The problem is that I'd drunkenly fall into your arms
The same way I did over a year ago
And I know you wouldn't catch me.
The problem is that you were the one that got away
And you ran fast and far
Because you needed to get away;
That was what I became to you.
The problem was that I taught you more about breaking than heart
And you taught me more about patience than tolerance
And at the end of it all I learned how to live a life without you in it because that was my only option.
The problem is that I am still in love with you
And you're in love with the life
That doesn't have a remnant of me.
The problem is that I am in love with you
And your life
Had no room for me
