lyrics

swear i should’ve left you much sooner
sorry i was too weak
kept asking you to change things
i should’ve seen they’d always stay
we never met halfway
you know i really tried to leave
i always said that we’d never make it
so i’d drag us through the mud
far too long until we’d break it
i should’ve walked away
but you asked me to stay

and now i walk to meet you on the street
i start to see someone i needed
hard to feel less than bitter
but without me you look much better
one morning i woke up
looked over and i thought
we could be better without this
without us

i’ll lie to myself
say it was time to let go
that you were too much of you
i was drowning to come up new
but it’s my fault just as much
my skin’s not tough enough
like i said before
i’m weak and sorry about that
i wish i could blame just facts
and you perhaps
i’ll start sleeping on the right again
it’s time i stop pretending

now i walk to meet you on the street
i start to see someone i needed
hard to feel less than bitter
but without me you look much
better one morning i woke up
looked over and i thought
we could be better without this
without us

every time i asked you to change
said you’d do it
but you’d screw it
every time i asked you for more
said you’d be there
but you weren’t
don’t talk
your words are all unnecessary

now i walk to meet you on the street
i start to be someone i needed
my heart is less than bitter
without us
