lyrics
* * * * * * * * * *
all i can ever be to you ,
is a darkness that we knew ,
and this regret i had to get accustomed to
once it was so right
when we were at our high ,
waiting for you in the hotel at night ,
i knew i hadn’t met my match ,
but every moment we could snatch ,
i don’t know why i got so attached ,
it’s my responsibility ,
and you don’t owe nothing to me ,
but to walk away i have no capacity

he walks away ,
the sun goes down ,
he takes the day but i’m grown ,
and in this grey , in this blue shade
my tears dry on their own ,

i don’t understand ,
why do i stress a man ,
when there’s so many better things at hand ,
we could a never had it all ,
we had to hit a wall ,
so this is inevitable withdrawal ,
even if i stop wanting you ,
a perspective pushes thru ,
i’ll be some next man’s other woman soon ,

i shouldn’t play myself again ,
i should just be my own best friend ,
not fxxk myself in the head with stupid men ,

he walks away ,
the sun goes down ,
he takes the day but i’m grown ,
and it’s ok ,
in this blue shade ,
my tears dry on their own ,

so we are history ,
your shadow covers me
the sky above ,
a blaze only that lovers see

he walks away ,
the sun goes down ,
he takes the day but i’m grown ,
and ( it’s ) ok ,
in this blue shade
my tears dry on their own ,

i wish i could say no regrets ,
and no emotional debts ,
and as we kiss goodbye the sun sets ,
so we are history ,
the shadow covers me ,
the sky above a blaze that only lovers see ,

he walks away ,
the sun goes down ,
he takes the day but i’m grown ,
and ( it’s ) ok ,
in this blue shade ,
my tears dry on their own ,

he walks away ,
the sun goes down ,
he takes the day but i’m grown ,
and ( it’s ) ok ,
in this blue shade ,
my tears dry .
