And I You

Out of reason
Out of strength
We've forgotten all
That we used to have
All those hours
Spent together
We were convinced it
Would last forever
I saw your face
You saw mine
Did we ever
See the soul behind?

We thought we could effortlessly
Carry on this way but
I exploited you
And you exploited me

I thought I knew you
And you thought you
Knew me as well but
All we knew was
A reflection of ourselves

Out of reason
Out of strength
We avoided
And we talked at length
We grew into
Distant people
Were unable to
Reconcile ourselves
You were hopeless
I was not
I'm still grieving and
You're still in my thoughts
