“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”<br /> <br /> – Bernard M. Baruch


[Verse 1] I know we haven’t talked in like in a year or two

But I now noticed how you tried to catch my attention 

And I was stupid enough to not see right through

Even though there is some tension

I want to give an explanation to you

This might just catch you off guard

I know, but what I’m saying is for real

I know that you must be scarred

And what I’m about to say, might sound surreal

But


[Chorus:] I was young, I was dumb

I couldn’t see the signs

I didn’t realize

And now your broken, now you're numb

Now I see your point of view

Now I’m not the one to comfort you


[Post-Chorus:] I didn’t mean to change your plans oooooh

But at least you're in good hands


[Verse 2] I’m not trying to say, what I did was okay

My head was capacious, I was oblivious

It was obvious, you put your feelings out on display

I was blind yet, you stayed kind

And I know I didn’t deserve it

But I don’t want you to think that

It wasn’t worth it because


[Chorus:] I was young, I was dumb

I couldn’t see the signs

I didn’t realize

And now your broken, now you're numb

Now I see your point of view

Now I’m not the one to comfort you


[Post-Chorus:] I didn’t mean to change your plans oooooh

But at least you're in good hands yeah


[Bridge:] I never got the hang of love

So how would I know what it was and what it wasn’t?

Maybe my heart was just confined

I was just blind

I'm sorry I didn’t mean to decline

Now I’m the one who’s trying

Now, I know how you felt when you were crying

You got cut, and I poured salt

I’m the one at fault because


[Chorus:] I was young, I was dumb

I couldn’t see the signs

I didn’t realize

And now your broken, now you're numb

Now I see your point of view

Now I’m not the one to comfort you

I wrote this about an old friend who kept giving me signs and everyone saw it except me. And when I understood I was too late.
