If Love Ends

(album: A Grey Area - 2023)

Two hundred miles outside Chicago in the winter
I know I always say, "I love a grey area"
I didn't mean it this way
Two hundred miles outside myself and I can't help it
You tell me what you need
Every cell inside my body says, "That's who we're gonna be".

I choose closing my eyes over rocking the boat
Lost in my mind, I don't know where I go when I follow you
When I follow you

I choose try to contort into your comfort zone
Lost in my mind, I don't know where I go when I follow you

If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
If love ends, is that not what we call it?

I'm a people pleaser, but I'm inconsistent
The part of me that's here Is fighting
With the part of me that isn't
I told myself I'd never let anybody hurt you
So, what the fuck do I do if I hurt you?

I choose closing my eyes over rocking the boat
Lost in my mind, I don't know where I go when I follow you
When I follow you

I choose try to contort into your comfort zone
Lost in my mind, I don't know where I go when I follow you

If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?

I'm sorry that I tried to love you in a way
I couldn't keep up, I couldn't maintain
Would you have preferred I never did it all?
Like what was it even for?

If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
If love ends, is that not what we call it anymore?
