Lyrics
Sometimes, I say just what I'm thinking
You call my frankness lack of tact
I say I think this ship is sinking
You say I'm too quick to react
You've always been too good at pleading
When I've got one hand on the door
But now I know I should be leaving
'Cause I can't stand this thing we're fighting for anymore
CHORUS
It wasn't good, but God, it's lasted
I'm still trying to get past it
Love's a dream we just can't catch
And now I'm crawling on the floor
At the start, I was enraptured
Paralyzed by lust and laughter
Those memories are fading faster
And I can't stay here anymore
I've gotta go
Sometimes I laugh when nothing's funny
I feel your stare like a disease
You condescend and call me honey
And I feel like the joke's on me
I've tried to be the bigger person
But somehow, you always make me feel so small
I used to pray we'd stay friends when we closed the curtain
But this time, I don't even care at all
I want you gone
CHORUS
It wasn't good, but God, it's lasted
I'm still trying to get past it
Love's a dream we just can't catch
And now I'm crawling on the floor
At the start, I was enraptured
Paralyzed by lust and laughter
Those memories are fading faster
And I can't stay here anymore
I've gotta go
It's not enough to say you're sorry this time
When your words always leave me on the ground
It's not enough to say you love me this time
When all you ever do is bring me down
CHORUS
It wasn't good, but God, it's lasted
I'm still trying to get past it
Love's a dream we just can't catch
And now I'm crawling on the floor
At the start, I was enraptured
Paralyzed by lust and laughter
Those memories are fading faster
And I can't stay here anymore
I've gotta go
