Make a Choice

I guess you thought I was playing 
Or throwing one of my passing fits 
But when I told you I’m done with this life of her 
I meant it, time to call it quits 
  
We have yet to finish talking 
About that night at the show 
Of you and her and you know what 
Yet you expect a sure just go? 
  
Make a choice. 
That has not changed. 
I can leave out that door 
Just as easy as I came. 
  
We’ve been living on thin ice of late 
Skating so carefully around 
Stand up to her for me or let me go 
I’ll not compete 
Not anymore. 
I feel the ice breaking 
  
I’m going to drown.
