What the Heart Can Bare

From time to time, thoughts linger in my mind
To the very thought of you
Memories come into play at odd hours of the day
And just appear out of thin air

I remember that you liked to sing
Messing up chords and re-tuning strings
Love is full of these delicate things
And my love flowed through every limb

But I had to stop myself, and just had to shelf
All those memories of you
The memories in which I strayed, were so damn fabricated
And I made you seem innocent

But we both know that's a blatant lie
After all, you were the one who said goodbye
I was so encased with the you and I
We both live on, but you won't care if I die

I still love you and I'll always care
Always up until the end
Did you think my heart could bear
You and I just as friends?

From time to time, thoughts linger in my mind
And see the pain I caused you
I could shortlist, all my lonely antics
That drove you insane

But if we are going back there
I need to be the one who clears the air
The reason I was laissez-faire
Was because I was so damn scared

My senses were heightened, whenever I was frightened
You forget about that?
So, yes I ripped apart, your fragile and brittle heart
But you forgot, you ripped apart mine first

The things you said with that tongue
They really rather stung
We both live on, but I'm the one
Who died at the end of our union

I still love you, but I can't go back there
Still, I want us to amend
Did you think my heart could bear
You and I not being friends?

You've changed your number
You've changed your style
You changed your laugh
You do it all the while

And you know what?
I'll come running back each time

You are so insane
You'll never change
You gave me pain
You'll do it again

And you know what?
I can only run back so many times

Well, I will love you, and I'll always care
Always up until the end
Did you think my heart could bear
You and I just as friends?

I still love you, but I can't go back there
Still, I want us to amend
Did you think my heart could bear
You and I not being friends?
