I saw in my mind fairy lights through the mist
I kept calm and carried the weight of the rift
Pulled him in tighter each time he was driftin' away
My spine split from carrying us up the hill
Wet through my clothes, weary bones caught the chill
I stopped tryna make him laugh, stopped tryna drill the safe
Thinkin', "How much sad did you think I had
Did you think I had in me?"
Oh, the tragedy
So long, London
You'll find someone
I didn't opt in to be your odd man out
I founded the club she's heard great things about
I left all I knew, you left me at the house by the Heath
I stoppеd CPR, after all, it's no use
The spirit was gonе, we would never come to
And I'm pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free
For so long, London
Stitches undone
Two graves, one gun
I'll find someone
And you say I abandoned the ship
But I was going down with it
My white-knuckle dying grip
Holding tight to your quiet resentment
And my friends said it isn't right to be scared
Every day of a love affair
Every breath feels like rarest air
When you're not sure if he wants to be there
So how much sad did you think I had
Did you think I had in me?
How much tragedy?
Just how low did you
Think I'd go 'fore I'd self-implode?
'Fore I'd have to go be free?
You swore that you loved me, but where were the clues?
I died on the altar waitin' for the proof
You sacrificed us to the gods of your bluest days
And I'm just getting color back into my face
I'm just mad as hell 'cause I loved this place

You say, "I don't understand, " and I say, "I know you don't"
We thought a cure would come through in time, now, I fear it won't
Remember lookin' at this room, we loved it 'cause of the light
Now, I just sit in the dark and wonder if it's time
Do I throw out everything we built or keep it?
I'm getting tired even for a phoenix
Always risin' from the ashes
Mendin' all her gashes
You might just have dealt the final blow
Stop, you're losin' me
Stop, you're losin' me
Stop, you're losin' me
I can't find a pulse
My heart won't start anymore
For you
'Cause you're losin' me
Every mornin', I glared at you with storms in my eyes
How can you say that you love someone you can't tell is dyin'?
I sent you signals and bit my nails down to the quick
My face was gray, but you wouldn't admit that we were sick
And the air is thick with loss and indecision
I know my pain is such an imposition
Now, you're runnin' down the hallway
And you know what they all say
You don't know what you got until it's gone
Stop, you're losin' me
Stop, you're losin' me
Stop, you're losin' me
I can't find a pulse
My heart won't start anymore
For you
'Cause you're losin' me
'Cause you're losin' me
Stop (stop) 'cause you're losin' me
My heart won't start anymore ('cause you're losin' me)
My heart won't start anymore ('cause you're losin' me)
How long could we be a sad song
'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life?
I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy
And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier
Fighting in only your army
Frontlines, don't you ignore me
I'm the best thing at this party
(You're losin' me)
And I wouldn't marry me either
A pathological people pleaser
Who only wanted you to see her
And I'm fadin', thinkin'
"Do something, babe, say something" (say something)
"Lose something, babe, risk something" (you're losin' me)
"Choose something, babe, I got nothing (got nothing)
To believe
Unless you're choosin' me"
You're losin' me
Stop (stop, stop), you're losin' me
Stop (stop, stop), you're losin' me
I can't find a puls
My heart won't start anymore

This is on you
Who gave it all and held you up
When nobody else gave a fuck?
Who bailed you out?
That was all me
Who was your biggest fan and oldest friend?
Your steady hand, you traded in
Still stuck around
Well, that was all me
But this is on you
It's your bed, babe, it's your funeral
This is on you
Did my best, babe, and you threw it all
Did all I could do
And you need me now, but I'm clockin' out
So this is on you
This is on you
And I get that you're hurt, having issues at work
Always fight with your father
But for years I was there, had your back
It's not fair how you took me for granted
I went down with the ship, always your therapist
Always your good luck charm, hanging on to your arm
But not anymore
Who was your biggest fan and oldest friend?
Your steady hand, you traded in
Still stuck around
That was all me
But this is on you
It's your bed, babe, it's your funeral
This is on you
Did my best, babe, and you threw it all
Did all I could do
And you need me now, but I'm clockin' out
So this is on you
This is on you

What do you do when the good guys change their mind?
'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
But I'll sit in your favourite dress and ask you where you've been
People don't leave people if they really are in love
I was good, just wasn't good enough
I was good, just wasn't good enough
I never said I was perfect
Just thought I was perfect for you
But all that was worthless
'Cause if I couldn't be one, I wouldn't ever be two
Thought I was the way home, but I was an obstacle to move
I never said I was perfect
Like you
'Cause I used to think that if I tried my best I'd always win
But I'll sit in your favourite dress and wonder how you've been
And did you ever mean it when you said you were in love?
I was good, just wasn't good enough
I was good, just wasn't good enough

All the hot girls, make it pop, pop, pop
Bad bitches wit' the bag, say "I", ya, ya
If he ain't talkin' 'bout no money, tell him "Bye, bye, bye"
And if you see a mad hoe, tell her "Ha, ha, ha"

I felt my heart get crushed
After I handed over the list of things I found romantic and would love to experience with my person.
It became smaller and
I could feel the way it turned in on itself
As he left it. And instead played world of Warcraft until 3am. Before I drove us to work.

Your love and grief are real, even if they're inspired by an inadequate and disappointing source.
