How did we get here?

How did we get
  from there
    to here?

How does "Forsaking all others"
  become
    "What she don't know?"

Turning trust
  Into
    Betrayal

And love
  Into
    Indifference

And somehow,
  after all the hurts,
    "I do"
      Becomes
        "Maybe I don't"

And "Happily ever after"
  Becomes
    "The Way We Were."
