Back to square one, or so it seemed
One step forward, two steps back
While pushing myself to the extreme
I found out what I couldn't hack.

Throwing myself into life
Selfishly leaving you there
Purposely creating strife
You thought I didn't care.

By being too comfortable
I neglected my fire
My best should be palpable
So I followed my desire.

I broke myself down
To be rebuilt stronger
By leaving you in this town
Our love will last longer.

Back to square one, a life spiral higher
Is not a turn backwards
When following desire
To move her and you forward.
