lyrics

Was it something I said? Or something I didn't know how to say? What exactly happened to make the woman you were into who you are today? You've drawn these schematics and measured these lines. You've made sure all your actions are brilliantly justified, because you'd hate to think you're making a mistake. At least not right now, not until it's too late.

And if I seem surprised... don't believe it. I've been practicing playing this part for longer than you know. Rehearsing these lines - “yeah I'll be okay“, “I'll be fine”, “don't worry about me” - and all the while, breaking your heart with my casual surrender.

Did it catch you off guard, the grace with which I could acknowledge the end? What did you expect? To see my heart on my sleeve, begging you not to leave? Well, I'm down on my knees - not pleading but dying. But this is a side of me you'll never see. I'd rather die than admit this is killing me.
