Spiral

You know things have been tough before,
I've done what I can, I should've done more.

Thinking I knew what I was doing, I knew I had a problem, slowly loosing the 
things we both had in common.

I can't apologize enough to make you feel at peace, Wishing that the contempt 
between us would just cease.

Wanting to grow old with you was my goal in life, now I must go at it alone with 
such strife.

Never knew how to fix myself from within, just never knew where to begin.

There's no book or set of instructions for living together, just adapt to the 
changes of our hearts own weather.
