Symmetry

I don’t know why you can’t see
That he’s just like me
Why you don’t see
The symmetry
Well I only see one
Disparity
I fucked up
And you set me free

I know you had to trim debris
But if you have chosen him, I can’t let it be
I know my chances are slim indeed
Cause there’s too much symmetry
Between him and me

I know he wants you to stay
Just like I did that day
And the words that he now says
Are what I used to say
He knows through and through
What I once knew
He’s in love with you
And I am too

I make a mistake that I will always regret
But there’s a bet I’d make
He hasn’t made his yet

You list the places he’s flown
And all he knows
Well we’ve both seen me roam
And I’ve now learned how that goes
Yes, he might come through
Like I could do
He might be true to you
But I would now too
