Cursed

Blueberry groves, we'd pass the time
Walking down two-way streets
Living well lived lives
Was it magical? Mystical? Classical?
Or just fine?
But nothing great can come from "alright"
Your bottom-holed baggage, you never brought up
And my dissatisfaction was tipping my cup
We both sat there, hiding all of our cares
Disguised it with our closeness

But buildings burn and pages turn
And our sacred ground was better left unfound
The obvious is sometimes hard to find
When you're locked in the crook of an alibi
And shoplifters don't get returns
And our wounds won't bleed if you'll let them be
It's tiresome to think
That I still think of it

What if things had been different
What if I wasn't yours through and through
What if time had kept ticking
When I'd ended my chapters with you
What if knowledge was power
And I'd let it all go when you gave me your word
What if that didn't matter
Cause maybe we were just always cursed

And I'll think of those evenings when we wasted our time
Just waiting for something that we'd get denied
All the games we would play and the lies we would say
Just to fill up the silence
Making grand plans and missing the chances
To say what we meant, could we still be fine then?
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care anymore
So what am I still fighting for?

If things had been different
And if I wasn't yours through and through
And if time had kept ticking
When I'd ended my chapters with you
And if silence was comfort
And I hadn't kept doubting, distrusting your ways
What if it's finally over?
Cause maybe we were just always

Some things I
I can't even admit to myself
Wish that I could still be someone
Without being yours (yours)
Time did fly
And I'd expired your interests
By surprise
There was nothing left to give
Left my side
Without leaving a trace
So then I'll say
How is it that just the other day
We had it all

So maybe things will be different
The next time that I meet someone
Who can fill up this rut and time will keep moving
Even though you're not around
You're not around to keep bruising
My battered and shattered and broken heartbeat
After all we weren't ruined
No we were just
Just cursed
