No Choice

(album: Good Person - 2022)

I finally made it to the stage of missing you
So I listened to a song I shouldn't listen to
And it made me start to take apart the story of us
What it could've been and wasn't, and what it really was

I said I'd never let go
And I told you I'd stay
But a ship without an anchor's gonna float away
Yeah, you watched me bend
And you let me break
Oh, I thought that I was stronger, that was my mistake
Maybe I left you 'cause you left me no choice

I begged you not to make me cry another tear
And I warned you I would leave before I disappeared
I carried us a million miles without your help
Till I barely even had the strength to save myself

I said I'd never let go
And I told you I'd stay
But a ship without an anchor's gonna float away
Yeah, you watched me bend
And you let me break
Oh, I thought that I was stronger, that was my mistake
Maybe I left you 'cause you left me no choice

Do you have any idea what you put me through?
What you did to me? What I did for you?
Now you're turning me into an enemy
When I know you knew how much I loved you
How much I loved you

I said I'd never let go
And I told you I'd stay
But a ship without an anchor's gonna float away
Yeah, you watched me bend
And you let me break
Oh, I thought that I was stronger, that was my mistake
Maybe I left you 'cause you left me no choice

No choice
