[Verse 1]
Give me a second to catch my breath
'Cause I don't like where we're headed
We're headed towards a mess
Ever since you've come back
I always want what I can't have
And you're no exception to that
We're all just brick and mortar
And I'm built on glass

[Chorus]
You promised that we wouldn't end up like your parents
That's what you said
But now the lights in my eyes are broken, just like before
I'm hanging up the phone and leaving
So sit here and try to cope your reasoning
You say I never let things go
But I guess I couldn't hold on

[Verse 2]
I'm bitter and alone with the thought that I lost you
I hope that I'm wrong and it's not true
I'll say it again
I won't make amends
For what it's worth you're gone to me
This will be the last time I say to you
The life we had, of course it fell through
I'm nothing to you
I'm nothing to me
I'm nothing to you
Just tell me when you'll be home
[Chorus]
You promised that we wouldn't end up like your parents
That's what you said
But now the lights in my eyes are broken, just like before
I'm hanging up the phone and leaving
So sit here and try to cope your reasoning
You say I never let things go
But I guess I couldn't hold on

[Bridge]
I found peace in dying on my own
Because nothing is forever
And I don't mind waking up alone
I found peace in dying on my own
Because nothing is forever
And I don't mind waking up alone
I found peace in dying on my own
Because I'm not the same person
And I fucking miss my home
You said you'd never let me go
But I guess your arms aren't that strong

[Chorus]
You promised that we wouldn't end up like your parents
That's what you said
But now the lights in my eyes are broken, just like before
I'm hanging up the phone and leaving
So sit here and try to cope your reasoning
You say I never let things go
But I guess I couldn't hold on
