Words get lost when left unsaid

I didn’t mean what she thought I meant

What I said is not what she heard

So much can change with one word

Why would she say something like that?

Shatter me, like glass against a bat

She said I misunderstood her meaning

But did I misunderstand her leaving?

I walked away because she wouldn’t hear

That my mistakes were made through fear

I was afraid to let her go, and say goodbye

So my words got twisted with emotions high

If I misunderstood what she said that night

Then tell me why we really had to fight

Why’d we argue until our throats were dry?

She could’ve said sorry, she didn’t even try

If a misunderstanding could ruin it all

Then we were always meant to fall

If a misunderstanding killed two friends

Then we were always meant to end
