what i've broken

Did I ever really love you
Did I ever take the time
Did I ever really want you
Or did I just want you to be mine

Did I hold you like a trophy
When I should have held you like a friend
This is my confession, I treated you like a possession
All along, but what I possessed was at best pretend
And now what I’ve broken I can’t unbend
What I have torn I cannot mend

Did you ever really love me
Did I ever really ask
Do these questions even matter
With so much buried in the past

Did I treat you too unkindly
Tell me, did I fail you once again
This is my confession, I treated you like a possession
All along, but what I possessed was at best pretend
And now what I’ve broken I can’t unbend
What I have torn I cannot mend

Two broken people trying to be complete
And we wonder why we both feel so used

Did I ever really love you
Did I ever take the time
This is my confession, you were never my possession
I wasn’t yours, and you were never mine
