There wasn't a lot I could do for you With the distance and everything else I couldn't give you much Only some small piece of myself And the image of my body bare For you to keep I would like to think the fantasy I spun Helped you in some way I know it probably didn't And it was foolish nonetheless to play a game of falsity The reality of us sunk in too deeply Too quickly And all at once Our future, There was none I forget that in reference I didn't have the time to care So I stopped all at once I'm sorry for that I hope I broke your heart enough For you to be able to write a song about it Maybe melody and lyrics With some semblance of us in them I hope wherever you are You are getting closer to happy I hope you still think of me. I know you do.

Half-assed Apology
