Looking Back

Looking back, wish I could say we left the past behind,
But you, you pushed me away.
Dropping matches on the bridges that didn`t need to burn,
And I wish it didn`t end this way.
Left with regret and the pain of words unsaid.

I never saw [bad word] and I never saw the [bad word] 
I know I played a role in how things fell apart,
But years have past and I can see it clearly.
No matter what I said, nothing could have kept it from this end.

How could you call yourself a friend,
When the [bad word] from your mouth?
Never meant a thing?
How could you call yourself a friend,
When everything we were did we want to mean a thing to you?

And when you broke down what we built.
It made me second guess myself.
It made me second guess all of us.
But time keeps moving on, and we keep moving on,
Always looking forward, we`ll leave the past behind.

And I keep asking,
And I keep asking,
And I keep asking...

And I keep asking,
And I keep asking,
What is left?
What`s left to say when the ties that bind have torn apart?

Looking back I realize no matter what we said.
Nothing could`ve changed the past.
Was it all for nothing? I guess we`ll never know,
But all that`s left are bridges burnt and lessons learnt.
