[Verse 1]
Our relationship is fraught, split down the middle
The past of us put down to sleep
Lying awake to the sound of your breathing
But I fear I hear nothing but creaks
[Chorus]
And does it trouble you to know
Trouble you to know
We will never grow, we will never grow
Don't take this personal, love
Oh, I write so I'm free from my head
Don't worry, you can trust me
I'll envision you as a protagonist
There's no need to dread
So I guess
This is the end, this is the end
Silence comes creeping in and it makes my skin itch
[Verse 2]
I trusted more in fate than I ever trusted you
But look where that got us, he took us both like fools
And I wanted to be better, for you
But with my self-deprecating manners
I'd wanna leave me, too
[Chorus]
And does it trouble you to know
Trouble you to know
The seeds have been ransacked
There's no way to grow
Oh, don't take this personal, love
Oh, I write so I'm free from my head
Don't worry, this time it's no joke
This will be my last poem about heartbreak
Then I'll let you go
I want you to know
[Outro]
Please don't let this be the end
I don't want this to end
Used to treat silence as my only friend
But now it makes my skin itch
I'll beg if you want
I'll beg if you want me to
I'll beg if you want
I'll beg if you want
