A Hole in the Ice, Part 2

Caught in a place between distress and my delusions
I thought I could change your mind
I should've noticed how tightly you closed it
You thought I'd keep on fighting back
When you were always on the attack?

Won't be your jealousy's advocate
Sharp glances! Grab me the tourniquet!
You were never one to strike first
But you were always sure to strike the hardest
Oh, it's a shame...

It's a shame that you were convinced that I was to blame
Face it, your mind's been made up
You've strung me along and you're afraid to feel
The silence of letting go
I believed that you were above this but I held you there
You're just as scared
You've let me waste my time on you

I was convinced that things could change...
And they did... into something...
But, could it be saved?

I stand at the edge pretending that this isn't the end
Push just a little further...
Watch how far I fall!
