The One

			Had I ever known it would be like this How a simple kiss could set everything amiss My conjecture'd have to be that I'd not let this become Such an endless abyss At the time it seemed like everything would turn out fine Hey, you and I were stronger than that, right? But fantasy is overrated in the eyes of the jaded, Frustrated, and alone Time will heal every wound The hands of the clock will bandage it And set it good as new, how bout you? Shall we abandon ship without saving the crew? It takes a lot to make me implore Does what we had before mean nothing to you anymore? Maybe the fault resides in me, the scars run deeper than I see And I've already lost this war I know this might seem rather raw Unpolished, clumsy, but I'm writing it Exactly as I thought, the words I sought Were any that would help regain everything we've lost But I don't wanna be the one Trying to undo what has been done And I don't wanna be Everything you've hated in me But I know we can't just run away It's been a while, but it's not been too long I know we've both moved on with blinders up to things that went wrong But we can do this together, this is a storm that we can weather A problem better seen as gone I smile when I think back on better days Yet we're fixated on this permanence that should've been a phase But there are ways To rediscover who we are and fight our way out of this haze But I don't wanna be the one Trying to undo what has been done And I don't wanna be Everything you've hated in me But I know we can't just run away We both knew it going in And were reminded getting out But getting through it in the end Is really what it's all about But this was not supposed to happen I did not want this to happen I cannot accept this fate Tell me it's not too late But I don't wanna be the one Trying to undo what has been done And I don't wanna be Everything you've hated in me But I know we can't just run away Copyright 2004 Laura McPherson Back
