lyrics

[Verse]
I've been biting my tongue and I'm holding my breath,
for a wish that I know I'm not gonna get.
Is this wishful thinking? Or am I just getting older with my regrets?

Here I am, here I am again.
Counting down the seconds until the end,
of my lifeline.

[Chorus]
You've settled in, with the thought of forgetting me.
That always was the easiest part.
Like a dream you don't remember, and the story is at the tip of your tongue.
But every single detail, keeps the air from your lungs.

[Verse]
I've been writing you songs, I've been writing a lot,
about how I love you, though you've hated me for so long.
Is this how it ends? Give me a story that doesn't end with, "Just Friends."

So prove me wrong, at least tell me a lie.
Because I feel like I've been doing nothing right.
Give me an escape.

[Chorus]
You've settled in, with the thought of forgetting me.
That always was the easiest part.
Like a dream you don't remember, and the story is at the tip of your tongue.
But every single detail, keeps the air from your lungs.

[Breakdown]

[Chorus]
You've settled in, with the thought of forgetting me.
That always was the easiest part.
Like a dream you don't remember, and the story is at the tip of your tongue.
But every single detail, keeps the air from your lungs.

I drove to your house on a whim, to see if you were looking out your window.
And I swear I’ll never do this again,
but the echoes in my head are just too much to take when I’m all alone.

I just find it hard to take in, when I’m sitting, reading all that you wrote me.
I swear I’ll never read it again,
but the echoes in my head are just too much to take when I’m all alone.
