remember the day we met

how i was so awoken by you

how i thought you were one of a kind

well would you look at us now


remember those long car rides

how your hand held my thigh the whole time

how our smiles held all the starlight

well then how did we get here


remember squinting to see

how we laid down and stared toward the sun

how our speeches at our weddings formed

well curtain’s going up now


now look at what you’ve ruined

how we have become the perfect storm

how you sic your pet girlfriend on me

now look at how we perish


now see how you are old news

how i’ve made something so much better

how you are just ashes in the wind

now watch as you diminish


now watch; you can’t control me

how you will never hurt me again

how you will call me bitter; that’s fine

now the curtain’s going up


thanks for being the star of the show

but it’s time to go

the back door will not be open

if you ever want to come home

i’m (not) sorry
