Delayed Reaction

Cut ties blew up my life, I ran away
And I'm still brushing the ashes from my suitcase
Oh all my clothes are the same shade of gray
And I'm sick of it
Still in the thick of it

So I go out with a vengeance
You'd never know I'm doing my best impression
Of somebody who's fine it's almost impressive
How it's almost working
Ya its almost working

You were the best thing that I ever had to let go
So I kept running faster to keep it from killing me slow
Oh I think I kinda under-reacted
I got in the habit of acting like it never happened
Now I'm having
A delayed reaction

Put you carefully in boxes
All of my favorite parts in the back of the closet
I didn't want it out but I couldn't toss it
And now I'm just haunted
This whole house is haunted

You were the best thing that I ever had to let go
So I kept running faster to keep it from killing me slow
Oh I think I kinda under-reacted
I got in the habit of acting like it never happened
Now I'm having
A delayed reaction

If I don't watch the end of the movie
Then I'm not the villain who ended it cruelly
And left like you weren't everything to me
Hope you know that you were everything to me

If I don't watch the end of the movie
Then I won't see all the future I'm losing
When i left like you weren't everything to me
Hope you know that meant you meant everything to me

You were the best thing that I ever had to let go
So i kept running faster to keep it from me killing me slow
Oh i think I kinda under-reacted
I got in the habit of acting like it never happened
Now im having
A delayed
Yeah i think I'm having
A delayed
Reaction
