Tragic Flaw

you're only moving faster, falling further, slip away from me
this failing situation breeds frustration in all i try to be
i just can't understand what makes you feel this way
i just can't stand to sit and watch you walk away
sometimes i feel like i'm to blame
sometimes i feel like there's nothing left for me to say
left with all these memories, but they don't look the same
and in my mind i picture them, they seem so far away
i think of how things used to be without comfort
without shame
where is the lesson i should have learned?
why can't i find my way?
try to ask the reason, keep on reaching for a broken dream
i reach a revelation, i'm not waiting on some fantasy
and i can't hate you for what you've done
just made me realize you're not the one
'what you are' and 'what you were' are not the same
i guess i was right the first time
i'm not the only one to blame
left with all these memories, but they don't look the same
and in my mind, i picture them, they seem so far away
i think of how things used to be without comfort
without shame
where is the lesson i should have learned?
why can't i find my way?
still breathing, believing
go ahead and turn your back on me
you're losing that feeling
you don't know what it means to me
