I Failed
I thought I could change you
What a whimsical scheme
Already set in your ways
What far fetched dream
You’re still the man
You proclaim to hate
Why do I even try?
I’m tired of this debate
I should have never wanted
To change the man you were
Even when you asked for help
I knew there was no cure
So failed you I did
For an impossible task
Make peace with yourself
You never should have asked
