lyrics

I'm tired of acting like everything's okay when it's fucking not, I've had enough.
We've been fighting, tension's rising, we're not talking, and I just don't know what to do anymore.

And maybe I'm getting tired of writing sad song after sad song about you
You get to a point where every day's another mountain to climb, and I can feel myself slipping, further away from you
I've tried to put this all behind me, and I swore I'd never let it get in the way, my best wasn't enough.
But what else is new, this ain't the first time I've let my heart think on its own, and it did me in.
It seems I've let you down again, my dear.

I know everything will be okay in the end, but all the bullshit in between makes you wonder if it's really worth the fight.
I always told myself that things fall apart so things could fall into place, got me by for a while but things never seemed to fall the right way
And I know you know that this song is about you, and I don't fucking care how much it might offend you.
I miss the days we used to spend talking for hours on end, before that day at Gazebo Park.
I know you never really took those feelings to heart, and knowing that was the hardest part.
I'll act like it doesn't cross my mind every day, if that makes it okay.

I guess it just didn't mean as much to you as it all meant to me
What's the point in hanging on if you're just poison to my being
I wrote verse after verse about how much you meant to me, and it wasn't enough.
It'll never be enough.

And maybe I'm getting tired of writing sad song after sad song about you
You get to a point where every day's another mountain to climb, and I can feel myself slipping, further away from you
I've tried to put this all behind me, and I swore I'd never let it get in the way, my best wasn't enough.
But what else is new, this ain't the first time I've let my heart think on its own, and it did me in.
It seems I've let you down again, my dear.
