you can't drag me down with you,
this raft has been built for one,
I lost myself in you,
no excuse for a love deluge,

I wouldn't see the truth,
a certain lack of empathy,
I'm a sensitive soul,
why not mislead me,

after all,
I fell for you when I shouldn't,
I believed in things you couldn't,
no need to ruin a friendship too,
we were congruent lines,
heading to opposing sides,

you can never really be happy,
I see the basis of you're pain,
I would have been the purist solution for you,
but you'd crush me just the same,

you did crush me, just the same,
weeping, alone we remain.
