I Was Right

I wasted so much more than time



And the one with whom I was as one



Has now undone what came to be known as our love



Which could not contain all that which she'd become







I was flat out wrong



And with both hands on the days gone by



I gripped my eyes wide open



Because I can't sleep at night



The world is much too cold



Without someone there to hold me or to hold



That's the way it goes







And I always thought that I would die



If you ever told me goodbye



But it wasn't until tonight



Tonight, I found out I was right







I wasted almost all my life



Being so afraid to fail I hardly tried



I found a place to hide



I dove into you



I swam around, around inside







But I'm not the boy that you destroyed



I'm stronger than he was



I had to be to survive



I'm lucky to be alive



The me you left behind



Is still lying there



With his eyes froze open wide







And I always thought that I would die



If you ever told me goodbye



But it wasn't until tonight



Tonight, I found out I was right
