were you ever able to outrun your grief
did you put enough miles between you and my exit sign
did you count all the stars as you drove through the night
use that time to carve away some of the pain
were you ever able to find your peace of mind
did you let go of me because I was holding you back
did you run out of excuses
finally realize you were the problem all along
was running away enough to burn away our memories
did you cross enough imaginary lines
did you find someone to warm your bed and maybe your heart
tell them they’re the love of your life, just like you told me
was there anything left to remember us by
did you lose my name when you deleted my number
did you throw away our photos
content to forget
i wonder if we were worth all the years we spent together
if the days and nights of pain and pleasure mean anything now
is love really worth it, if it’s only meant to end
is the grief we endure is worth the time
i wonder if you regret me, like i regret you
if we can never outrun the way we broke each other down
you once said you were sure you really loved me
but time gives you a perspective of 20/20 vision
love should have never felt like that
