The Tragedy of Us
If I were to sit you down and admit to all the times I wished you were him
Would you admit to feeling the same?
Would you say that you wished that I was her?
If only this life had brought us together in a different way
Then maybe we'd be together
I'd save you from yourself
You'd save me from becoming somebody else
If I truly wanted you to rescue me from my mistakes
Could you?
Would you leave her to come help me?
The answer is one we already know
You would.
I know this with all that I am
Some hearts our drawn together
Even when they shouldn't be
Unable to resist the tug of the rope that holds their souls together
Combining them as one
Like a any tragedy where love is conquered by the reality of everyday life
We'll never be able to prove our love to each other
Too many road blocks stand in our way
Walls that we are incapable of tearing down
But if you could whisper the three words before you disappear
At least I'd know
That if things were different our love would rise above
