The confession: It was my fault

It was just me and her talkin' ‘bout the stars,
She wasn’t ready for the universe and how it goes too far
Sophomore year, we were cruisin', hittin' a blunt
I was droppin' knowledge on the little runt

Infinite concepts, my mind was outta control,
I never thought my words could take a heavy toll.
A week later, she slipped, tried to make it all stop,
Didn’t know what I said could make her soul drop.

Words like daggers, I never saw the sign,
Shoulda held her hand, but I let her fall behind.
Regret’s deep in me, like a knife twistin’ slow,
Wish I could’ve held her, told her she wasn’t alone.

She came back from that edge, but it left a scar,
I kept thinking ‘bout the distance, how we drifted so far.
I had this plan, hold her hand it will help when she gets back
But the moment passed, and I lost like dropped stacks.

On again, off again, just playin’ the game,
We both got lost, but I’m the one to blame.
I didn’t reach out when she needed me most,
Now I’m stuck with these thoughts, feelin’ like a ghost.

Words like daggers, I never saw the sign,
Shoulda held her hand, but I let her fall behind.
Regret’s deep in me, like a knife twistin’ slow,
Wish I could’ve held her, told her she wasn’t alone.

So here I am, still haunted by the past,
Couldn’t save her when it mattered now I trip up on my past step five right here I can be free at last
Still wish I’d held her hand, could’ve saved her from the fall,
But all I got left now is the echo of it all.
