Tragic Flaw

You're only moving faster, falling further, slip away from me

This failing situation breeds frustration in all I try to be

I just can't understand what makes you feel this way

I just can't stand to sit and watch you walk away

Sometimes I feel like I'm to blame

Sometimes I feel like there's nothing left for me to say

Left with all these memories, but they don't look the same



And in my mind I picture them, they seem so far away

I think of how things used to be without comfort

Without shame

Where is the lesson I should have learned?

Why can't I find my way?



Try to ask the reason, keep on reaching for a broken dream

I reach a revelation, I'm not waiting on some fantasy

And I can't hate you for what you've done

Just made me realize you're not the one

What you are and what you were are not the same

I guess I was right the first time

I'm not the only one to blame

Left with all these memories, but they don't look the same



And in my mind, I picture them, they seem so far away

I think of how things used to be without comfort

Without shame

Where is the lesson I should have learned?

Why can't I find my way?



Still breathing, believing

Go ahead and turn your back on me

You're losing that feeling

You don't know what it means to me
