lyrics

After all this time I still lack closure
The way you kept us in this mess
Forever wishing this was over
From the pressure layered on my chest
Or worse the things I never mentioned

Now honestly,
I can't forget the nights we had
When we were younger
The product of a simpler time

Why do you hide your lies
They'll all collapse and be seen in time
I've tossed and turned through sleepless nights
Wondering why,
You hide behind dishonest eyes

I've made up my mind
I've given up this time
I know exactly where i'm at and how I feel
And I wanted it to show
That i'm starting to let go
Of all the hopes I used to know

Are my thoughts and actions all in vain
Should I just stop relax and let come what may
I still cant forget your face
Is it better off this way

Why do you hide your lies
They'll all collapse and be seen in time
I've tossed and turned through sleepless nights
Wondering why,
You hide behind dishonest eyes

I've made up my mind
I've given up this time
I know exactly where i'm at and how I feel
And I wanted it to show
That i'm starting to let go
Of all the hopes I used to know
