Determining the Denouement

And I've made plenty of mistakes unjustified by a litany of excuses. Even if I can't correct them, I can identify each one every time I commit them again. Taking the wrong way home although I know better is the falling action tonight. I collapse looking at the cracks in the pavement that lead me from your house and envy their inevitable repair. I'm not a concrete boy, but your heart cemented our fate and made the words that you wrote lies before they had a chance to dry.
