The Close of Chapter 19

Sometimes I just wish I would run out of tears I’m so tired of crying, so tired of being scared But I’m not the kind to let go, to give it all away How can I set things right, if I can’t find mistakes I take back every word that I’ve said Every feeling, that I said I felt Now I don’t care, can’t you see You’re the one that turned your back on me You turned your back on me Stop telling lies your intents aren’t that righteous You didn’t leave for me for things that you might miss Your agenda is selfish stop saying you’re selfless I can’t live through writing another song about this Every thought that I think (Is about you) Every word that I speak (Is about you) Every line that I write (Is about you) Why do they have to be about you Why do they have to BE Why does this song have to be about you Why can’t I just… move on without you Sometimes I just wish I would run out of tears I’m so tired of crying, so tired of being scared But I’m not the kind to let go, to give it all away How can I set things right, if you’re who made the mistakes You lied to me with all that you said Every feeling, that you said you felt Now you don’t care, can’t you see You’ve made yourself my reason for bleeding You’re my reason for bleeding WHY CAN’T I MOVE ON You’re intents aren’t that righteous WHY DO I STILL HOLD ON You’ve never been selfless WHY CAN’T DRY I MY EYES You’re something that I miss AND MOVE ON And move on CAN WE JUST MOVE ON
