"Not Meant To Be"
("Not Meant To Be" lyrics by Theory of a Dead Man)
It's never enough to say I'm sorry
It's never enough to say I care
But I'm caught between what you wanted from me
And knowing that if I give that to you
I might just disappear
Severus stared after Lily as she walked off, her red hair swirling around her.
Nobody wins when everyone's losing
They'd both lost their dreams of being together.
It's like one step forward and two steps back
They'd been so close...Now they were so far...
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
She would never forgive him for this one...
Oh, it's like trying to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want
She didn't and would never understand this part of him...Yet it hurt so much...
And it's killing me
He'd actually thought she was the one...
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be
Apparently not...
It's never enough to say I love you
She never knew how much he loved her...
No, it's never enough to say I try
It's hard to believe
He didn't want to believe...
That there's no way out for you and me
And it seems to be the story of our life
Nobody wins when everyone's losing
They'd both lost everything...
It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
She would never forgive him for that one instant of anger...
Oh, it's like trying to turn around on a one way street
I can't give you what you want
He couldn't back out now...
And it's killing me
He was stuck, caught, committed to the wrong thing...
And I, I'm starting to see
Maybe we're not meant to be
Or had they both changed so much they meant it?
There's still time to turn this around
Was there still time? He'd just thrown it all out.
You could building this up instead of tearing it down
Maybe he should beg to start over...
But I keep thinking
Maybe it's too late
But would she give him the chance he needed so badly? He knew the answer was no. Lily had always been touchy about insults and her bloodlines.
It's like one step forward and two steps back
No matter what I do you're always mad
And I, I can't change your mind
Oh, it's like trying to turn around on a one way street
He was so stuck...Trapped...Lost...
I can't give you what you want
And it's killing me
And I, I finally see
Maybe we're not meant to be
He lifted his head, watching her fade out of his life...
It's like one step forward and two steps back
Always one more step back, till there was no more room to go back, no room to go forwards, stuck..
No matter what I do you're always mad
No matter what he did, she would always hate him for this...
And I, baby I'm sorry to see
"I'm so sorry." he whispered.
Maybe we're not meant to be
