i think it's time to say goodbye
to our past and final dreams
i think it's time to let go
of something we cannot see
and i know it's hard to say
we'll never be there again
but times are changing, life is hard
i don't need you in my head
we thought each time would be different
but instead we played our games
pushing one away from the other
and throwing vicious names
as someone who'll stand so tall
i can't fall next to you on the floor
you always seem to have enough
while i am left needing more
i know that i can't cling to you
but sometimes i'm at your feet
wishing you'd take care of me
wishing our old selves could meet
it's just so hard to push away from you
when you're pulling me right back in
but you'd never say you need me
you'd never let me win
and i was fine just stringing the lines
on this all too familiar track
i don't know why i'd follow through
if i don't know if i want you back
i was being mature this time
maybe this could work
i looked up from a broken world
while you looked down with hurt
you cannot linger on the past
if i'm still in your mind
we've got to get past the present
and a future we will find
you've got to see me standing here
i swear i'm not the same
i'm done with all the fighting
i'm done with all the games
we've got to get to a point
where i can call you friend
because i know we can't get to the road
that we won't travel again

i didn't tell her in the letter;
i'm not coming down...
