Do you ever think about parallel universes?
Somewhere out there
We're still together
Somewhere out there
There's a you that never broke up with me
And a me that never broke up with you
I wonder how they're doing
Sometimes
Late at night
When I can't sleep
I'll get up and go run
Under the stars
In the cold of night
I'll run until I can't think anymore
Those are the best nights
The peaceful ones
When the air is fresh and crisp and my legs burn numbly
And whatever worries I have
Whatever troubles
Are evaporated into the starry sky
As though they were made of air
Completely insubstantial
And when I get home
Hungry
Cold
And exhausted
I can't help but to drift seamlessly into sleep
My dreams are calm
Peaceful
And when I wake up
I know what I need to do
You might not like this
You might not agree
But I need to do what's best for me
(Best for me)
I told you I was sorry
I don't know what for
For breaking your heart?
That seems awfully egotistical
Maybe it's because I feel like I didn't try with you
Maybe it's because it felt like there could have been something great there
I just wasn't ready to reach out and grab it
And maybe I'm sorry because you were
You were standing there
An arm's length away from me
Reaching out to me
For so long
But I never reached back
And so I'm sorry
But maybe there wasn't anything there
Maybe you were reaching out to me across a chasm
As large and
As wide
As the Grand Canyon
And maybe you were hopeful reaching out
But I knew I could never reach back
You might not like this
You might not agree
But I need to do what's best for me
(Best for me)
(Sorry)
(Best for me)
