My Greatest Mistake

In this bitter state of agony,
I've come to disbelief,
In what I thought was me.

I tried so hard, I only meant to please,
As you lay next to me,
I hear you muttering, "It's not worth this grief."

And as I lay with you at night,
I feel like something isn't right.
Am I holding on too tight?
Well, maybe it's not worth the fight.

I'm trying to let go of you,
While holding onto nothing,
I can't help now but face the truth,
I only thought that you were bluffing,
But now I see the real me,
I'm coming to grips with reality,
I've ended all your suffering,
Our fairy tale ending is just a forgotten dream.

In the twilight if this tragedy,
I truly cannot see,
Should this enlighten me?

They say that love's supposed to conquer all,
But I can't see my faults,
And I can't recall how I let it all fall.

And now I look back on our life,
Pain and sorrow fill my sight,
I loved you but I didn't try,
But I've already lost the fight.

I'm trying to let go of you,
While holding onto nothing,
I can't help now but face the truth,
I only thought that you were bluffing,
But now I see the real me,
I'm coming to grips with reality,
I've ended all your suffering,
Our fairy tale ending is just a forgotten dream.

And if I could do it over,
In a heartbeat, you'd be mine,
My emotional enclosure,
I would open and refine.

My love for you would all shine through,
And all of your dreams would come true,
This I swear, you know I do,
But it's too late, and I know that too.

I'm trying to let go of you,
While holding onto nothing,
I can't help now but face the truth,
I only thought that you were bluffing,
But now I see the real me,
I'm coming to grips with reality,
I've ended all your suffering,
Our fairy tale ending is just-

I'm don't want to let go of you,
I'm holding onto nothing,
I can't let myself face the truth,
I didn't know that you were bluffing,
And though I see the real me,
I've come to grips with reality,
Please just end my suffering,
Don't let our love become a forgotten dream.
