Beginning with Release

Beginning with release
Second chances only create
Even more seconds to wait
Everyone starts over
Turns a new leaf
But you're weak
And even the weight
Proves much too heavy for a pest like yourself
Especially when you're already burdened
With a chip on your shoulder
That cuts as deep as her treachery

And this release
It won't be the end for me
Our tug of war taught me
Resilience and a few more things
I was only armed for battle
You see
But I didn't lose because I'm not lost
And you have to be strong to keep holding on
But it takes strength of mind
To know when to release

Is there a life
Without forgiveness
If I release
Will I still remember
I was only armed for battle
You see
But I didn't lose because I'm not lost
And you have to be strong to keep holding on
But it takes strength of mind to know when to release

You've been saving all your pennies just to flip the coin
Well, heads up high roller
All you're going to see is tails as you watch me leave
I never was your Lady Luck
And I'm fucking done
Being your second best
No need to worry about me
I'll bounce back from this with ease
What a shame you won't be so lucky
Cause you're not going up
And you're not going down
You'll just waver back and forth
Still impossible to please
Cause you're not going up
And you're sure as fuck not going down
You'll just waver back and forth
Still impossible to please

And this release
It won't be the end for me
Our tug of war taught me
Resilience and a few more things
I was only armed for battle
You see
But I didn't lose because I'm not lost
And you have to be strong to keep holding on
But it takes strength of mind
To know when to release

Is there a life
Without forgiveness
If I release
Will I still remember
I was only armed for battle
You see
But I didn't lose because I'm not lost
And you have to be strong to keep holding on
But it takes strength of mind to know when to release

You say
But we've only just begun
And I say
Our beginning is done
You never should have left
No
You never should have come
