Closure

I knew it was over when the fighting stopped
You were too checked out, you just gave up
But I stayed, didn't wanna let it end that way
So we went back and forth for months
Too afraid to cut our losses and walk
There was only so much we could take

It's like we're lying on the beach and the tide is at our feet
It will soon be at our heads and take our breath so

I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over
Seeing you defeated doesn't bring me any closer to closure
I am acting out of self defence, I am all out of options
I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over

The strain of time tore us apart
It's not what we want but it's where we are
And I, I know the fault is partly mine
I miss those nights when we talked for hours
About our dreams and our desires
But all that's gone, all that's left is bitterness

I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over
Seeing you defeated doesn't bring me any closer to closure
I am acting out of self defence, I am all out of options
I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over

I can hate myself for this
You can say that I'm a selfish prick
It doesn't change my mind
With both our backs against the wall
Someone's gotta take the fall
So I'll be first to cross the line

I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over
Seeing you defeated doesn't bring me any closer to closure
I am acting out of self defence, I am all out of options
I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over
