Lyrics: 
(I let my) guard down to get stabbed in the heart, its the worst when the sky turns dark, why’d you make our love fall apart? When I’m alone (thats when) my thoughts embark. I walk around with a gash in my chest, (you) told me you weren’t just like the rest, now I lay down and can’t find rest, you said that this was for the best, (how) can it be when you’ve made me a mess? I bet its easier for you than me, to sleep soundly right around 3, how could you just let go of things, doesn’t love turn to wedding rings? Instead my hearts off in a sling, how’d you get so good at letting go? Right about now I’d really like to know, that way I don’t cry every night, thinking how I can’t hold you tight, my friends try to come to my aid, they don’t know they set me off like a nade, small things trigger my head to a raid, in the fridge I still have her lemonade, are those things you left here going to help or hurt? Should I keep them or toss em right down in the dirt? While you’re off bettering yourself, I’m off walking through hell, you told me to do what I need to do, I can’t because that doesn’t involve you, do I wait and stay loyal, or will it just make me boil, it’d be better if you didn’t tell me you’re in love, then turn around and shoot me down like a dove, what am I supposed to do now? I thought we both took a silent vow, I guess it was all just a joke, I hope you’re laughing while my pillows soaked, did you know that love takes work? I brought that up just to look like a jerk, you just wanted the good not the bad, I just wanted the best you’ve had, communicate in a way we’re glad, now I cant talk through the tears of the sad, everyday I put time in to better us, a sacrifice made so we wouldn’t rust, then when I ask you for a little more, its enough for you to toss me on the floor, I told you the worst thing you could say is its over, but you picked that option like a four leaf clover, you’re the first to say I love you and the first to want to leave, did you really think things would abruptly end so magically?
My worst fears turned to facts, Should have listened to my gut who had my back, I’m fucked up cause I pushed fear aside, giving you a chance to give it a try, now you won’t even look me in the eye, the same place where you saw my love was high, I’m told that I didn’t have to be so sweet, I’m sorry I listened to my own heartbeat, and now its killing me killing me, smells and holidays bring you to thought, I wish I didn’t miss you alot, Who knew that turning into fall, would mean my downfall, I guess its my own damn fault, (or you’re just being selfish) we used to talk and go for a hike, now I talk all alone to a mic, when my phone gets a notification, it gives me the worst motivation, I just want to hear that you’re sorry, you took off like ferrari, I wonder where are we, or do I wish that you wouldn’t text, forget about the late night sex, should I even ask for my stuff, or say that enough is enough. I used to hug you and kiss your cheek, do I even remember how? its been weeks, Is this not working right now or are you not working right now? When did this not become a team thing, solo acts can get their own ring, Ever since you left me alone, I can’t even find peace in my home, Drink to refill teared devotion, my life is moving in slow motion
