The last lie in a life: Ill-conceived, tragic, but not just snow (patrol)

After reading Cooper's Happenstance, it brought to mind a song I heard last night by Snow Patrol:
Chocolate Lyrics
This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words

What have I done it's too late for that
What have become truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time



I think the video is appropriate to the situation she described...

But I have been wrong before.

Like that song, and the lyrics.
