Everlasting Heartbreak - DC

[Verse one]
You left me for him.
Left me on a whim.
Loved me as a kid.
Then for years played pretend.
Changed your name and your hair.
Made my life so grim.

It's your fault we ended up this way.
That we'll never celebrate or say hooray.
Throughout the pain, I lost my name.

You would love me and leave.
Break my heart and let me grieve.
Never understanding you were the girl for me.
The one I need, for all my misdeeds.
You shaped me into what I never wanted to be.

I know you had your own problems.
I never wanted to be one of them.
As time goes on, you'll understand neither of us did win.
And we're both stuck in our sins.
Again and again, I wonder what would happen if we didn't -

Lose it all.
You aren't here to break my fall.
I'll fall again and hit the floor.
You don't know all I've endured.
The times I lied about who I adored.
Just to be the person that you'd hold.

{Hook}
I need you here.
Please don't leave me in fear.
I've lost you a thousand times.
Please hold me near.
But I know you won't.
(Know you won't)

[Verse 2]

I'm just a mistake.
Watching the world break under its weight.
Pausing for the friends who are fake.
Once dreamt of Being a great.
Then I realized dreams are for the people who know how debate.

I've been watching you from afar.
Knowing the world is everything to you but full of shooting stars.
If I had an escape, I'd go far.
Lost in my own mind, riding around in my car.

I wanted to be a good person to you.
Not one filled of hate and malice.
But you left me and now I'm the mad hatter with no Alice.

I've thought about us a thousand times.
And the times you were kind.
The memories I can find.
Lack compared to the ones that are sublime.
I'm not okay, I'm not fine.
I'm not trading places with him, I don't wanna change on a dime.

He won't be enough for you.
You'll have fights and he can't love you like I do.
We had good times but you always broke the rules.
I've sacrificed so much for the people I've loved.
Walked through a thousand dunes.
Lost in the my own utopia, welcome to the club.

Look up and you'll see me.
This is goodbye.
Someday you'll see what happened in your greed.
Once we reach the sky.
With a world so divine.
That it's fine. (It's fine)
That you've forgotten about me.
And I've done the same.
Lost control, til you remember my name.

[end hook]
It's over now.
Head lost in arguments and clouds.
Empty the reality, just hold me now.
(Hold me now)
