Returns: a collection of self

Farewell to Love

I'll stop expressing my heart over 808s and melodies
The way I treated you should've been charged as a felony
Don't even know how I got you, I guess my words are my specialty
But there's no talking you back, being alone is my destiny

To all of my exes, I only give my apologies
I should've given my time, I should've had more modesty
I fled from the scene instead of giving all of me
Now I'm the laughing stock, this whole movie was a comedy

I'm sorry to the ones, even if we weren't a thing
But I promise what we had was more than just a fling
We could've been at the part where we were exchanging rings
But I just had to fuck it up, I look back each time and it stings

No reason to have any pity or any sympathy
I'm a lost cause, an off sound within the symphony
If I could go back in time, I would make sure it turned out differently
If I could go back in time, I would make sure it happens instantly

I could never change and that's always been my issue
I would be lying through my teeth if I said I didn't miss you
But this whole "love" thing, I know that I can't continue
It's all too traumatizing, you'll never know until it hits you

As far as your new love, I hope it lasts til death
When it comes down to it, I hope they don't make you hold your breath
I hope they hold you tight and make up for the nights you wept
And warms up the lonely night that you unfortunately slept

In another lifetime, I hope I can get it right
To take your darkest days and shine the brightest of lights
To share what time I have without putting up a fight
And to give what love I have all day and through the night.
