Best Opportunities In Your Misery

[The_Vacancy]

Was hard to write.

 

Basically about a girl I liked three years ago. We hung out together and everything and I liked her so much I ended up lying and betraying all of my friends just for her. She didn't like my friends. Three years later, I never gained back those friends and she ditched me. So in trying to be with her, I pretty much lost all of my friends and everything around me.

 

Worst thing is, shortly after, she ditched me and went away with my friends. I lost them for her and then she discarded me for them and it really made me sick in the stomach. And she ended up blaming it all on me. And I never meant to do any of that.

Sitting here tonight

Thinking about you again

Well, it's only right

Well, I think about you every night

 

Take it back three years

And I wasted my breath trying it

Well, now I'm writing it

I wasted the best years I had

Saying I wanted you

And the best opportunities

In finding life's beauties

In finding reasons

In you, whatever I could do

I always found the misery

 

And I didn’t want to be,

The one to promise apologies

So be it, if that's how it has to be

Well, then I'm sorry

 

I didn’t want to lay burdens upon you

But in trying to seek, to see

I see that it has to be

Well, then I'm sorry

 

I never meant you pain

Well, I was never the course of blame

But in promising your apology

In closing eyes, I'm sorry

 

And sitting here tonight

Thinking about you again

Well, I say it's alright

To write and rewrite the memories

Of promised apologies

 

And being here tonight

I almost see you next to me

We could say it's alright

But after searching for reason

And finding misery

To you, I can only say goodnight

 

You'll be alright…

You'll be doing okay

Hands down, and I'll forfeit life's fight

Very creative poem and by the way hope that serve as a lesson for you. Though I don't think it's late to apologize to your friends and admit your wrongdoing.
