You Can'T Take Back

You can’t take back the tears I’ve shed
You can’t take back the words you said 

You can’t take back the loneliness in my heart
You can’t take back the feelings to depart

You can’t take back the endless lies of deceit
You can’t take back the miles of defeat

You can’t take back the torture I’ve endured
You can’t take back the insecurities you’ve ensured

You can’t take back the disloyalty to me
You can’t take back the demeaning debris

You can’t take back the selfishness you display 
You can’t take back the relationship of decay

You can’t take back the need to dominate
You can’t take back the destruction you did create

You can’t take back the chaos and mental despair
You can’t give me back, wasted minutes, days, and years
