what will you say to me now?

now that we've destroyed our love


with each other's mistaken notions

of who each of us were?


as long as things were happy and easy

there was nothing we couldn't face


but when hard reality made its claim

suddenly nothing mattered any more


you have your resentments and I have mine

we both made the same mistakes


for the same exact reasons when we thought

love would resolve our crooked paths


and what will we say to each other now

that we can't hear and we can't admit our culpability?
