Yes I've essentially ignored your calls  And the messages you leave  When you said you didn't want to talk again  This time I'm holding you to your own finality  Did you think that behavior  Had no consequence  When you continue to break my heart  Eventually there's nothing left to break Somehow you heard me singing  And assumed I must be happy But the only reason I'm harmonizing To other folks upbeat songs Is I'm in a continuous state Of trying to not fall apart  You really haven't been paying attention All this time and you don't know  I don't write happy songs and when singing joy I inject an undercurrent of melancholy  Are you really cool like this  With nothing stable  And it continually gets worse  Even if you are I'm not gonna be Somehow you heard me singing  And assumed I must be happy But the only reason I'm harmonizing To other folks upbeat songs Is I'm in a continuous state Of trying to not fall apart...

At some point enough is enough  I refuse to keep fighting for something  When all I'm doing is defending my name  As you invent New Lies against it  That's nothing I strive for  What were left holding on to  Is something neither of us want  We're just two lonely hearts Craving a place that makes us whole  There's nothing I want more  We found each other on the way  Surely we'd be heading to the same place  At least going in the same direction but  It's a journey for Love Not lovers  That's something we messed up  If you're lacking completion  It's something that you can't provide  You just make it hurt more  Ripping away at nothing there  That's something I know now  I'm sorry it had to be you  I do love you I see me in your heart  And I know we both deserve things that we lack  It hurts knowing that I made you worse off  It's something I would change  It's time to sto...

Back then we told each other lies Convincingly so we'd believe I wish those lies had been the truth Imagine the reunion that we'd have then. But it's not, or is it that the fact we lied so that we would walk away and not look back. Here we are, no better off; proof of our lies, it's not okay. As we cried, we gave our word just so that we'd never get back what was precious, now history. Maybe we believed our words then. We were hopeful and so naive. But it's not, or is it that the fact we lied so that we would walk away and not look back. Here we are, no better off; proof of our lies, it's not okay. As we cried, we gave our word just so that we'd never get back what was precious, now history. We were all we had ever known and we knew each other well; villains and heroes over time. We couldn't see life without us always being intertwined.   But it's not, or is it that the fact we lied so that we would walk away and not ...

  A happy ending isn't guaranteed Even in a fairy tale Have you really read those tales? Honestly, no one really wins. No matter the perspective  the darkness touches them all at some point or it always lingers at the end of the day... Closing our eyes it finds us again So why do we dream of love and endings  That are like a fairy tale I finally understand jaded folks from my youth now gone, I just don't know where or how. Now I'm fulfilling a need or just a worn out ditch that I find society has made a perfect fit like it's just for me. I always thought that I had missed out but  My whole life's a fairy tale  I know because nothing lasts I'm a dreamer in a nightmare that I knowingly forced myself to stay in The more you try the harder it gets  Always trying to stay in the light  But darkness is always there waiting When I close my eyes ... Waiting I close my eyes... Always I close my eyes... Darkness I close my eyes...  I close my eyes... Lies t...

Our parting ways has been coming almost as soon as we started out. There're people who thought that we had been done. Standing here, I wish they were right. Two people who look for ways to one up the hurt the other causes while claiming weak "I love you"'s, we had to be insane.  And just like that... I'm done, I'm through, I might love you still, but I have to get over you It's funny because it might seem  like I was the one shutting you out, but really you're the one who sealed the deal  Sometime before I said no more I won't be taken for a fool, or wrong, advantage of, for granted;  for my voice to be muted  so yours only sounds clear.   And just like that..  no more, it's done, I might love you still, but what does that mean in the end  You went from not so crazy to kinda crazy cute to "oh shit for real"... To maybe this is seriously risky  now did you REALLY threaten my mortality. And just like that... Stop. No. Desist! I might ...

We allowed ourselves to build up walls/when we needed to stop and try to heal. We're no longer playing defense / we see nothing but offense. Why are we always so shocked / at the head-on collision,/ it happens every time. I let love open doors / for you to come setting everything ablaze. I try and / who knows why / I still cry / ev'ry time / It's no use / love won't do / what we need / it to do Stop calling it a breakdown of romance; / breakdowns yes, but of other things. / Things like trust, respect, decency, basic things... / broke down like boundaries never put in place. I guess if I was shady like you / I'd worry I'd get back like I've been giving/ afraid everyone could be the one / that's serving karma and fate. It's funny you think I don't see / what you're doing, this routine / on repeat every week, / would you get some new material please / it's just sad honestly. I try and / who knows why / I still cry / ev'ry time / It's...
