lyrics

If all leaving you did, was leave you alone, then I guess I was wrong.
I'd hoped leaving you would, would leave you for good.
For the better. I just wished you'd change.

When it goes, so suddenly, it's gone, for good it seems.

It's an apathetic sentiment, from constant words you never said.
I've grown tired from failed attempts at, forgetting the feelings
I thought we shared.

When it goes, so suddenly, it's gone, for good it seems.

I know you still love me. Your heart is still bleeding.
I know you still love me. You can't mask your feelings.
(I'm so tired of this thing failing. So tired and stuck on leaving.)
I know you still love me. I know. I do.
(I'm so tired of this thing failing. So tired and stuck on leaving.)
