Letra de A Letter
we were just children then
we hardly knew ourselves
and yet, i felt i knew just you could be
i tried to hold hand
to make you understand
the care i felt, though i could not be with you
thru the years i thought
that you were strong enough
to fight, and overcome
the hurt that comes with truly living
there were so many paths
that you chose not to take
and now you sit and wonder if youre breathing

you blame the world for your unrest
demanding pity for your distress
and you'll go on, it's safe to dream
never knowing what might have been
still now and then i reach for you
and pull back someone i never knew
i'll just say this, it makes me sick
how much you're afraid

you tried to tear my down
to make me feel regret
for the many things that i thought made you love me
perhaps i am too real
and expectations could reveal
a spine no thicker than a single pointing finger
so i'll just turn my head
remembering instead
a time when you burned bright
and not that you have faded
no need to give reply
or even say goodbye
i just hope that you find the peace that you were missing

i can't pretend i never cared
but as i move forward you won't be there
something stirs under my skin
that says push on, push thru
and now i know it's not in you

you blame the world for your unrest
demanding pity for your distress
and you'll go on, it's safe to dream
never knowing what might have been
still now and then i reach for you
and pull back someone i never knew
i'll just say this, it makes me sick
how much you're afraid
