Broken promises
But you don't really mind
It's not the first time
And you know know it, don't you now

Tell me why it is
You only smile inside?
When you break me into nothing
Don't you know?

It's not like
I haven't tried
Over and over again

Stupid fights
Wrong or right
Goodbye

I remember when
You came with me that night
You said forever
That you would never

Let me go
And here I am again
With nothing left inside
No I don't wanna

But I gotta
Let you go

You're my the one mistake
I really didn't mind
So beautiful
Unmerciful

It took me down
Too little and too late
See now I know your kind
You fake it easy

Just to please me
Don't you know?

It's not like
We haven't tried
Over and over again

Sleepless nights
Wrong or right
Goodbye

I remember when
You came with me that night
You said forever
That you would never

Let me go
And here I am again
With nothing left inside
No I don't wanna

But I gotta
Let you go
I gotta let you go

It's you
There's nothing I can do

Let me go
And here I am again
With nothing left inside
No I don't wanna

But I gotta
Let you go
