The Ones We Couldn't Be

It's hard to say now who left first

It used to seem so clear

You and I were tangled from the start

Somehow the scales just fell away

And I'm left standing here

Blown open in the hole that was my partI wrap the dark around me

There's no solace here tonight

Just wishing and regret for company

My glass is raised for all the ways

We tried to get it right

And I'm sorry for the ones we couldn't be

I'm so sorry for the ones we couldn't beLooking through these photographs

Searching for a clue

How you and I got tangled from the start

Not even blood could forge a bond

Enough to get us through

Or stem the tides that pulled us far apartI'm sorry for the ways I couldn't give you

What you needed

For all the ways I strung us both along

They say it goes both ways and I suppose

I could concede it

Seems to matter more, now that you're goneAnd though it seems much kinder

Just to leave some things unsaid

Like all the ways I tore myself apart

If you really want forgiveness

You better try the truth instead

It may not be enough, but it's a startI wrap the dark around me

And there's no solace here tonight

There's just wishing and regret for company

My glass is raised for all the ways

We tried to get it right

And I'm sorry for the ones we couldn't beI'm so sorry for the ones

Sorry for the ones

I'm sorry for the one I couldn't be

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
