Lyrics:
I don’t know
How it starts
I don’t know how it begins
But I know
There’s one thing that I want
And I know I’m gonna lose it again

Don’t pretend it doesn’t end like this
Don’t pretend it doesn’t end
Don’t pretend there’s more to it than there is
Don’t pretend there’s more than this

Just take it for what it’s worth now
There’s not much else left to do
But wait and watch it play out
Watch me disconnect from you

You know I’ll never let you in
Kept in the dark
Where nobody wins
At an arm's length
The damage is done
And the fallout stopped being fun

But it’s a habit
And it’s dying hard
Not the whole thing
Just a little part
Of what used to keep it okay
Before I knew how to say

That the fear
Stopped making sense
When you’re near me
Feels like I understand
It never needed to be that way
I never needed to carry that shame
On my shoulders
And on my tongue
There’s a word for
Exactly what I want
But I can’t tell you
I never will

There’s too much time left to kill
Don’t pretend it doesn’t end like this
Don’t pretend it doesn’t end
Don’t pretend there’s more to it than there is
Don’t pretend there’s more than this

Just take it for what it’s worth now
There’s not much else left to do
But wait and watch it play out
Watch me disconnect from you

Lyrics:
Here come the waves
Crashing, killing in their wake
Get ready to pay
For these things you couldn’t do
Pay for the light they found in you

A simple mistake
Is all that it takes
To break it all
You trip and then you fall

The old routine
In my reoccurring dream
Picks me up
Just to let me go

Where the water’s cold
And waiting for
A burning soul
To come on in
Shed their sin
And try it again

Lyrics:
Repetition
The handing off
The giving in
The faces that you lost

Too close to tell
Too far to see
A personal hell
For everyone but me

Come on
Show me your best
Come on
Put your word to the test

Your voice of reason
Lies through her teeth
Do what you want
But keep it away from me
I don’t need another crutch
I need to come down
Scared of the slightest touch
Scared of what I found

Go on
Go ahead and quit
You know
I’m sick
And I’m tired of this

Lyrics:
Dragging it on
Staying too long
The feeling was gone hours ago
Still you stay in this empty place
Caught between
The tired faces that you love
This used to be enough

Now the people that you meet
Keep you drowning in defeat
Keep you asking what it means
Until you’re grasping at these dreams
They put on you
If you think you’ve had enough
Why not give it up

Love is the law
Burning and flawed
Lighting the fire
Under you
Nobody moves
When secrets are loose
Shut it down
Before it tells on you

In desperate pursuit
In search of the truth
Leaves you guessing
Every night
While you’re still awake
While morning breaks
All these promises you’ve made
As they become your first mistake

But it’s too late to change your mind
It’s too late to apologize
Save those lines for someone else
That still believes that you mean well

Throw it all away
In this game we pay to play
It’s the same shit every day
It bends until it breaks
Now there’s nothing I could say
That would make you feel the same
Bite my tongue and get out of the way
