I Don't Want to but I Need To

You can tell me it's over
You can tell me it's not
But if it's both, don't play

If it's done I'll move on
Baby I'm already gone
But if you're here, I'll stay

I'm learning to fall asleep without you
The loneliness is fading away
Embracing the reasons why I doubt you
It's getting better everyday

So why, just when it gets easier, you come back around?
And all of my progress goes crumbling to the ground
'Cause boy, you've got a hold on me that you didn't know you had
But if you were to let go of me, it wouldn't hurt this bad

Need to get over you but I don't want to

You tell me I'm beautiful
Then nothing at all
Just show me how you feel

I'll be fine without you
I'll be fine alone
Unless this could be real

You're not who I thought you were
But I still pretend that you are
'Cause it's just so much easier
To ignore

So why, just when I get stronger you come back for more?
And I start to realize that we've been here before
'Cause boy, it's only the endings that justify the means
And even our nightmares are still considered dreams

Need to get over you but I don't want to

Ooh baby this is not like before
One foot out the door, but my heart is with you

Ooh baby I am not like the rest
I wish you the best, but the best is with me

Ooh baby this is not like before
One foot out the door, but my heart is with you

Ooh baby I am not like the rest
I wish you the best, but the best is with me

So why, just when I get better, you come back for more?
And all that I've worked for just works against me now

I deleted your number, I'm moving away
I could never think of the right things to say

I'm moving on
'Cause I know I need to
