Callous - Patient Sixty-Seven

An indifferent collapse

I should’ve seen this coming

Chances taken

Have left me becoming

Broken

I know there’s not a way

That I can change the past

But I’m so past being left betrayed

So past being left betrayed

Face moving on

Or end up this way

Now that the tables have turned

Breathe in the failure of your own renewed remorse

I can’t live like you

But I’ll find the reason

To see this through

I might be the one that’s paying for it now

But I’m facing my pain

Seeking change

You’d sooner leave

Than change your ways

(Things could never be this way)

Things could never fucking stay this way

I know the ties we’ve cut

Meant more to me

Than you’d ever comprehend

Spent — picking myself up

Off the ground

Never again

A life that doesn’t crave restraints

It only seems to allude you (allude you)

I refuse to live through the abuse like I used to

Everything you’ve taken from me

Can’t take me back

I can’t live life in misery

With everything that you have taken from me (from me)

Don’t take me back

I can’t live in misery

The difference it makes

Progress made in past mistakes

(Progress made in past mistakes)

(And I might be the one that’s paying for it now

But I’m facing my pain

You’d sooner leave

Than change your ways)

I was wrong to think

You ever saw

A way to make amends

Endlessly

We are changing

But you never did

This is who you’ve been all along
