Listen to me for once You listen but you don't understand I don't want to go back to the past There were flaws in the past The bad was horrible The good was sometimes flawed Why can't you see See the truth in my words You read them but you don't comprehend them It's like I'm writing in a language you can't read And all you see are my ****** expressions And the tone of my voice and you're all like Yeah, I understand. But I can't go back to that. Like you answered The opposite of what I'm asking Because even the poems you reference Signify changes from the past Even the rebooting poem Because it's about a clean slate Not redoing everything we ****** up.

Why Won't You Understand?
