Lyrics
It's one of those days I should be crying
But I've even tried, and I can't force the tide
I sit and stare at this fading ring
It's been so long since I put it on
Sometimes I feel like it's all I can do
To keep it together, to stand by you
And every time I reach the door
I turn around and give you more
Chorus:
But not this time
I can't live this lie
And I can't sacrifice
With no end in sight
I'm leaving tonight
I'm sorry I held back so much of me
I had to hide this chaos inside
Now it's way past time to pull the curtain down
Cause I'm not as strong as I've seemed all along
And lately I feel like I'm long overdue
To get it together and walk out on you
But every time I've packed my bags
Something's been holding me back
Chorus
There was a time I couldn't see beyond you
When I built my life and tore it down around you
No matter the pain, I would have stayed
Chorus
