Self-Destruct
I tried to talk the talk, walk the walk, but that's you, not me, not easy
Why can't I just react much faster?
It's not you, it's me, I didn't try to be the one who would set you free
Instead I threw you to disaster
All those times I spent with you were filled with joy and laughter
Why did I go self destruct that happily ever after?
You tried to be there for me
So how did I never see?
I roam with eyes closed so tight
Couldn't see you there, couldn't see all night
You gave your time, but then I
Couldn't give you much of mine
Cowardice takes over me
Had to let you go, had to let it be
And now the clock it tics and tocs, we flip, we flop, but I can't trust myself
If minds could break, I'd have a fracture
But now your name it echoes in my brain, this train of thoughts keeps on chugging faster
I could be strong, but I'm a slacker
All those times I spent with you were filled with joy and laughter
Why did I go self destruct that happily ever after?
You tried to be there for me
So how did I never see?
I roam with eyes closed so tight
Couldn't see you there, couldn't see all night
You gave your time, but then I
Couldn't give you much of mine
Cowardice takes over me
Had to let you go, had to let it be
I saw your name, it popped up on my feed
A stark reminder that I messed up big
You tried to be there for me
So how did I never see?
I roam with eyes closed so tight
Couldn't see you there, couldn't see all night
You gave your time, but then I
Couldn't give you much of mine
Cowardice takes over me
Had to let you go, had to let it be
Why can't I just react much faster?
It's not you, it's me, I didn't try to be the one who would set you free
Instead I threw you to disaster
All those times I spent with you were filled with joy and laughter
Why did I go self destruct that happily ever after?
You tried to be there for me
So how did I never see?
I roam with eyes closed so tight
Couldn't see you there, couldn't see all night
You gave your time, but then I
Couldn't give you much of mine
Cowardice takes over me
Had to let you go, had to let it be
And now the clock it tics and tocs, we flip, we flop, but I can't trust myself
If minds could break, I'd have a fracture
But now your name it echoes in my brain, this train of thoughts keeps on chugging faster
I could be strong, but I'm a slacker
All those times I spent with you were filled with joy and laughter
Why did I go self destruct that happily ever after?
You tried to be there for me
So how did I never see?
I roam with eyes closed so tight
Couldn't see you there, couldn't see all night
You gave your time, but then I
Couldn't give you much of mine
Cowardice takes over me
Had to let you go, had to let it be
I saw your name, it popped up on my feed
A stark reminder that I messed up big
You tried to be there for me
So how did I never see?
I roam with eyes closed so tight
Couldn't see you there, couldn't see all night
You gave your time, but then I
Couldn't give you much of mine
Cowardice takes over me
Had to let you go, had to let it be
