The Cost of My Stupidity Was Too High
Time is slowly moving past
Joy is slipping from my grasp
Days bring nothing but sad thoughts
Losing you, but at what cost
Mistakes, regrets fill up my head
Things I should have done instead
Words did not come out so right
I let you go, you held on tight
Took over by insanity
I just wanted to be free
I wasn't even worrying
About you or the feelings
That I hurtfully attacked
Words of power fully packed
Saying things that didn't lack
The meanness that cut right through
Making you depressed and blue
Thinking of myself and leaving
You weren't the only one grieving
Your pain is no longer there
No more crying lonely tears
Your at peace, but I am not
I'm living with the hardest part
Of my selfishness so long
And the blame since you've been "gone"
