the future belongs to those who survive the past .

it finally hit me, like a tun of bricks.
laying there with my make-up running,
and tears flowing from my eyes.

i told you how much i loved you,
you said how much seeing me like that hurt.
we told eachother how much he hated our mistakes.
and at that very moment, nothing else mattered.

after caring about the past for so long,
and after crying so hard about things i cant fix,
i finally figured it out.

what happened back then doesnt matter anymore,
making those mistakes doesnt matter,
walking away doesnt matter,
being with him doesnt matter, and never did.
and it doesnt matter how many times it comes up in a conversation,
we can never change anything,
the past is meant to stay in the past.


but you do matter to me,
being with you matters,
seeing you matters,
loving you matters, and always will.

no matter what happens,
and no matter what happened before.
i'm with you now.

i have you, you have me, and we have us.
and thats all that matters.

I was such a fool to hurt you,
cause you're the one I always turn to,
When I'm going out of my mind.
I just bite the hand that feeds me,
Instead of loving ones that need me.
But I want it more this time.
I was wrong. It's hard to say.
At least I learn from my mistakes.
