In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
I found a flower at my feet,
bending there in my direction.
I wrapped a hand around its stem
and pulled until the roots gave in,
finding there what I've been missing.
And I know.... The Good Left Undone, Rise Against

And I know.... The Good Left Undone, Rise Against
I've read along for so many days, longing to be the shining knight that broke the evil spell, never imagining I'd be another villain in the tale. No regrets we said, knowing someone was going to get hurt never thinking it would be her.
She blames herself. Is it her looks, her mind or the sex we shared? I tell her she is smart, beautiful and one of the best lovers I have ever had. I don't doubt her feelings for me. I know I have feeling for her too but not enough.
I am confused, scared--and sorry. I do not want to bring pain to the one that has brought me nothing but joy. Maybe I am jaded but I have my doubts. I do not think it would be fair for me to hold on to her knowing I can not return the same level of love.
Perhaps I am incapable of having such love without risking my sanity. I hope not, yet today I feel numb and I should hurt.
So I released the one I professed to love the most-- without signs of another, without hope of finding someone else. I'll go back to my sheltered existence and dream.
that's when she said I don't hate you boy
I just want to save you while there's still something left to save
that's when I told her I love you girl
but I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have...Savior, Rise Against
