Islands Separated (100 Good Years)

I was at your mailbox in the daylight
You said it was inappropriate
But then you showed up at night
My life feels like a parody
I can only cause harm
It was never my intention
I've lost you, my lucky charm

I never wanted to make you cry
You left, that was your choice
But for you to say, "you never tried"
It's a hurt I can't describe

I feel like I'm in an endless nightmare
A bad movie changed for the worse
If there's one place you should be, it's here
I could have promised you 100 good years
But it'd never be enough
To cancel out the seconds you poured tears
For the poor words that I chose

But I watched you paint the doors
Kept you company when you were blue
I was always quietly by your side
And you know I would've always protected you

But now we're islands separated
Physically in different postal codes
If love can not blossom here
Eventually, I'll find it does down the road
