Complicit

Don't know how I missed it,
How I got so complicit,
How I overlooked those parts of you. 

And now I'm in danger, 
The man I love turned into a stranger,
And I'm starting see we've got more problems than a few. 

Holy F%ck do I feel stupid.
How did I even do this? 
How did I let this happen to me? 

And I still feel like it's my fault, 
I'm so bad at being loveable that you've gotta launch this assault,
But really it wouldn't even matter what I do.

I know I'm terrified to leave,
But there's been less love than there has been grief,
Now I can tell I've got no future here with you.

I don't know how I missed it, 
Or how I got so complicit,
But hey, maybe I can forgive myself for that.
I just need to figure out who I am without you. 



Don't know how I missed it, 
How I got so complicit,
But hey, That's OK -
Because now I'm figuring out who I am, without you.
