This time… why won't you… turn around…
So many years of running through the wild,
Two stubborn hearts that can't be reconciled.
All down this road, we fought and we frayed,
With jagged edges that would never fade.
We both fought hard to save a little pride,
Choosing the silence over stepping inside.
I tried to bend, I tried to make a change,
But who we are is out of running range.
The passing years have cut the scar too deep,
Forcing a puzzle that we cannot keep.
Breaking apart, then running back around,
Drowning together on the same old ground.
Our matching natures are a heavy chain,
Locking us tight inside the same old pain.
Born to be strong, refusing to give in,
A lifetime of pride is settled deep within.
Rewriting who we are is far too smart,
Deeply in love, but cursed by fate to part.
You won’t turn back, and now I see the sign,
Another touch would be a borderline.
Our jagged edges clash with every breath,
A crossed-star story running out of depth.
From now on, we are beyond looking back,
Don’t clear the dust upon the broken track.
Two stubborn souls refuse to bow or bend,
Staying together means a war without an end.
From now on, we are beyond looking back,
Our destinies have split across the black.
We are who we are, we cannot be rearranged,
Let go of love, and set free the estranged.
It’s not for lack of love, I’m only tired,
The endless friction burned out every fire.
We cannot change, so why go back in vain,
Turning around just leads to the same deep pain.
From now on, we are beyond looking back,
Don’t clear the dust upon the broken track.
Two stubborn souls refuse to bow or bend,
Staying together means a war without an end.
Our destinies have split across the black.
We are who we are, we cannot be rearranged,
Let go of love, and set free the estranged.
We always hoped that time would heal the cost,
But stubborn hearts stay frozen in the frost.
Seeing the truth, I stop demanding more,
There is a peace in walking out the door.
This time… beyond looking back…
This time… beyond looking back…
We walk in peace… no need to look back.
