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
