Dear

I think this song is about a friendship that, like she mentions,will always be treasured (or the innocence and unknowingness they shared of life). They weren't meant to be lovers because their egos (,pride) and insecurities got in the way, but their friendships helped each other out along the way.

the lyrics are so butchered.

I'll always treasure the naivety of the past we've shared. Our bodies grew much faster than our minds, but together we got good at stopping time. My teen angst drove me to hurt myself and I made you watch oh, the pain I must have caused. But by staying around you saved my life. (Saved my life)

We were never meant to be lovers Just fellow late bloomers who blossomed apart, who blossomed apart

Watching my parents made me look for something destructive, and there you were with all the characteristics of my mum, familiarity of home. The geographic gap led to force adulthood and your rage exposed. I'm glad we left things when we did, I doubt I'd survive another bloody war.

We were never meant to be lovers We just mirrored each others self-destructiveness, self-destructiveness

The spotlight burned in the room when we were together, and we played our parts and I wore an imaginary TV-screen so you never got to touch my heart. (touch my heart)

We were never meant to be lovers Our egos fed off each other and died overweight, and died overweight

I thought I'd seen it all when you first walked in, but you shut me up and challenged every wrong perception I've had of myself and you haven't ever stopped.

anyway, amazingly good song.

Wow... so deep

Mnemonicrhyme's lyrics are right, but, I think she says:

I'm glad we left things when we did, I doubt I'd survive another bloody nose.

And. . .

We were never meant to be lovers Our egos fed off each other and I'd over wait. I'd over wait.

No, he/she was right with the lyrics, save for the blooy war part. It is bloody nose.
