A Million Years
Saving face only saves yourself
From the guilt of knowing the pain that you caused
You can hide behind your technicalities
Claim it wasn't how you intended things
But in the end, the scene's still littered with your prints
Sooner will a million years elapse
And table salt blossom in the spring
Before you accept the charges in your name
And I can breathe out the breath that I've held in
When hell freezes over
I'll still be here
Waiting for closure that you'll never bring
And that's on me
That's on me
Every time we fight, I get a whiff of gasoline
It permeates the air, every time that you speak
Telling me what I perceived was wrong
Your false memories the only ones you count
As if my tears were spontaneous raindrops
Sooner will a million years elapse
And table salt blossom in the spring
Before you accept the charges in your name
And I can breathe out the breath that I've held in
When hell freezes over
I'll still be here
Waiting for closure that you'll never bring
And that's on me
Holding hope can get so tiring
Leaving the porch lights on gets so expensive
But despite the odds, I can't move on
And that's on me
They tell me that I should know better
Losing sleep's not worth your apology
But despite it all, I can't move on
And that's on me
That's on me
Sooner will a million years elapse
And table salt blossom in the spring
Before you accept the charges in your name
And I can breathe out the breath that I've held in
When hell freezes over
I'll still be here
Waiting for closure that you'll never bring
And that's on me
That's on me
From the guilt of knowing the pain that you caused
You can hide behind your technicalities
Claim it wasn't how you intended things
But in the end, the scene's still littered with your prints
Sooner will a million years elapse
And table salt blossom in the spring
Before you accept the charges in your name
And I can breathe out the breath that I've held in
When hell freezes over
I'll still be here
Waiting for closure that you'll never bring
And that's on me
That's on me
Every time we fight, I get a whiff of gasoline
It permeates the air, every time that you speak
Telling me what I perceived was wrong
Your false memories the only ones you count
As if my tears were spontaneous raindrops
Sooner will a million years elapse
And table salt blossom in the spring
Before you accept the charges in your name
And I can breathe out the breath that I've held in
When hell freezes over
I'll still be here
Waiting for closure that you'll never bring
And that's on me
Holding hope can get so tiring
Leaving the porch lights on gets so expensive
But despite the odds, I can't move on
And that's on me
They tell me that I should know better
Losing sleep's not worth your apology
But despite it all, I can't move on
And that's on me
That's on me
Sooner will a million years elapse
And table salt blossom in the spring
Before you accept the charges in your name
And I can breathe out the breath that I've held in
When hell freezes over
I'll still be here
Waiting for closure that you'll never bring
And that's on me
That's on me
