I saw you standing in the dark
down those empty lanes
I know that things have gotta change
between the two of us
I know we both've felt the pain
I know that we've made mistakes
and never learnt
Yeah, it's kept me up at nights
thinking of you and I
oh it hurts me every single time.

I saw you crying in the street
why'd you run away from me
you could tell me how you feel
and i'd never judge
I know i didn't deserve it back then
lacked the courage, the strength
didn't stand up for my friend
things got bad but that wasn't
how i wanted things to end.

I wish I could forget it
wish I didn't regret it
'cause every time i think of it
makes me wanna cry
can't stop those tears
can't seem to leave the past behind
I know I felt bad so i wanted to apologize
no I didn't want you by my side
no i didn't want you to sympathize
now you didn't know how i felt inside
I know thing never worked out
but I'm glad i tried :)

She sees the waves ram against the crags, stretching outward and onward to the line that breaks the sky in half, and in doing so it meets the sea in a wholesome piece. The waves crash upon the sand and walking across it is a white horse taller than she; its black eyes capture her in a doe-eyed gaze, and as it approaches she is consumed by a strange fear and in terror she leaps into the sea and is swept away by the white currents that roll her along, throw her, jostle her, swallow her and eventually spit her out only to pound her once more, dragging her slowly, to where the white waves subside and the sky meets the sea.
