when I asked for your forgiveness
i'm sure you doubted what i'd said
it didn't make much sense then

but as time has evolved
and our futures unraveled before us
everything became so much clearer

"incompatible" wasn't unfamiliar
because when I held your hand
no matter how hard I squeezed
I could never feel anything at all

and when we cried,
because we cried,
we swore love off evermore

but I guess you were lying.
