I knew it was over when the fighting stopped You were too checked out to give a **** But I stayed Didn't want to let it end that way So we went back and forth for months Too afraid to cut our losses and walk But there was only so much we could take It's like we're lying on the beach And the tide is at our feet It will soon be at our heads And take our breath, so I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over Seeing you defeated doesn't bring me any closer to closure I am acting out of self-defense I am all out of options I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over The strain of time tore us apart It's not what we want but it's where we are And I know the fault is partly mine I miss those nights that we'd talk for hours About our dreams and our desires But all that's gone and all that's left is bitterness I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over Seeing you defeated doesn't bring me any closer to closure I am acting out of self-defense I am all out of options I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over I can hate myself for this You can say that I'm a selfish ***** It doesn't change my mind With both our backs against the wall Someone's gotta take the fall So I'll be the first to cross the line I don't wanna say it's but somebody's gotta say it's over Seeing you defeated doesn't bring me any closer to closure I am acting out of self-defense I am all out of options I don't wanna say it but somebody's gotta say that it's over
