For every excuse I had to leave us behind

I rummaged through piles of my own baggage for a solution

Any solution that meant I could justify keeping you around

Most reasons I never found a solution to 

I never told you that

But you

Found your first and only excuse and sighed relief when it meant you finally had a reason to leave me 

I think that's what hurts the most now

I fought for solutions

You fought for excuses

The sorriest excuse I ever made 

Was abandoning my intuition if it meant getting to have you
