This Failure Is Not On Me

Текст песни Heart on My Sleeve - This Failure Is Not On Me

So this is the letter that I never sent you
The words that I never said

I don't know if this could have ended
Differently
Sometimes I wish I could go back
And erase every bad thing I ever said

Still, this failure is not on me
I understand that this could never have worked out
You came in carrying your past, as did I
Every word ever exchanged was always a reminder
Each sigh, every touch, each glance, threw us back
You couldn't let go and I couldn't let you in

Remember the hours we spent with The Smiths
It makes me choke
Repeating the lines of This Charming Man
Brings up the scent of you
And it all ends up in a cycle of absence
For a love that could never last

There was always a part of you I could never reach
Still I tried, tried, tried, too many times
There was always a part of you I could never reach
Still I tried, tried, tried, too many times
Still, this failure is not on me
I understand now that this could never have worked out
You came in carrying your past, as did I
Every word ever exchanged was always a reminder
Each sigh, every touch, each glance, threw us back
You couldn't let go and I couldn't let you in

All I have left now are the memories of you, of me, and Morrissey
And with them, I will end what I never told you
All I have left now are the memories of you, of me, and Morrissey
And with them, I will end what I never told you
