I Can't

look at us
who would've ever thought
i would leave your city for good
the two of us
i can count on one hand
the times you've reached out since then

all the times that you told them
that i was insane
i never met your little sister,
but i remember her name
what caused your sudden change in perspective?
a true change of heart,
or fear of consequences?

you've delivered your message
a real stellar work
not at all like the others
those miserable jerks
you're saying everything i've ever wanted to hear
but only after being told to
it's never been more clear
i can't forgive you

i've learned how to live without your judgment and shame
can't believe there was a time where i thought i lost something
left my molted layers and uncovered my wings
i'm in love with myself now
can you say the same?

you've delivered your message
a real stellar work
not at all like the others
those bastards and jerks
you're saying everything i've ever wanted to hear
it didn't have to be like this
but now it's never been more clear
i can't forgive you

the whole world has bent to your
will for so long
you've never been the bad guy
you've never been wrong
crack my worth like a code
you thought it'd be easy
the right sequence of words
your war strategy
well i changed the locks,
it's been so long i forget when
you will never hurt me again

i can't forgive you
