So, this is it.
We called a compromise:
I broke your heart and you broke mine.
But suddenly, I'm not sure,
If I'll ever find a love as loud as yours.

I thought we acted on our doubts without ever seeing the proof,
Maybe the world's full of lies and you are all that is true,
So just in case you are listening,
Maybe this will come as consolation,
Once upon a time, I believed you.

Days here are beautiful but sometimes cold,
Just like you,
Just like you.
You said you know how to turn it off,
When this much is enough,
But I will call your bluff,
I'm calling your bluff.

Going through the motions is not as easy as it seems,
I spend my days hung up on "what if's" and my nights thinking up "could be's."
It's like the girl that I can't recognize is made up of her own disguise,
It's like every other week I was sound asleep next to a body lies.

Watching my breath,
As it twists and turns to take the shape of you coming out of my chest.
I won't be a convenience,
I won't be just your safe bet, your safe bet.
Oh you looked so sweet,
But I should've guessed,
That you may smell like vanilla,
But you taste like cigarettes.
