Tribulations Lyrics by ACVM

2021

I want to thank you for all you did for me
And all you've done and led me to see
But I can't forgive those words you said to me
And the way you handled them

The tug and pull and now I'm full
Of hurt that I don't understand
And I wonder why, what if you had tried
To salvage the good that we had

Hurt runs through the veins like dye in an IV plugged into your arm
And sometimes best intent and self-restraint do less good than harm
I wish that things were easier and I wish you'd told me sooner
But I can't get that now

It's not like ripping a bandage off yourself
It's like ripping hot wax off of someone else
The heart is not some thing you can obtain
It's not some lioness that you can tame

And I'm sorry
I'm sorry

You said you'd like to talk again
And of course I want that too
But time will tick and stop again
I'm afraid to pass by you

You tell me that I'm your best friend
And you love me with your whole heart
But being best friends is the hardest part

It's not like ripping a bandage off yourself
It's like ripping hot wax off of someone else
The heart is not some thing you can obtain
You can't catch it for your acclaim

And I'm sorry
I'm sorry

But do you think it's fair? Do you think it's right?
That when you come in I don't put up a fight
You said you need space and you said you need time
But when you came in you would barge in on mine

I'm starting to melt and I'm starting to steam
The dye in my veins is hellfire burning me
And people tell me we were the perfect team
I know that we were and I want to scream

And it hurts to see you
'Cause you said that I'm no good for you

Hurt runs through the veins like dye in an IV plugged into your arm
And sometimes best intent and self-restraint do less good than harm
It's not like ripping a bandage off yourself
It's like ripping hot wax off of someone else
I'm sorry that you didn't feel the same
I'm sorry I held no position in your game

And you hurt me
You hurt me
