These past few days I've been sharing a snippet of the chorus to this song to a couple of you guys on here. I honestly reallyyy love this one but I've been hesitant to post it because I don't want the song subject to take it the wrong way ( so if you're reading this by any chance, I'm sorry and I still love you as always ). It's been a rollercoaster of emotions this week ( nothing new, 2024 has been like this since the start of the year ) and well, as a songwriter I just had to pour my heart out into lyrics. This ended up being much longer than expected, whoops-


1ST VERSE:

One year and three months

That's how long it's been

I could pull so many stunts

Several of my own lies spinned within

Oh, where do I even begin?

When it's a web I can't untangle

And it's our interaction we're prone to strangle


PRE-CHORUS:

I hate to do this, you know I do

Especially after every thing I've put you through

You don't deserve this, I don't deserve you

But I can't bottle it in no more

When I just came back from the drawing board

Can't leave my thoughts to drown by the shore

I refuse to internally explode like before


CHORUS:

Communication is key, but you locked it

How did two good people make this toxic?

And there's only so much I can take

Before I crash into another heartbreak

If you need space, then go ahead and take it

It's surely about time I quit worshipping you as sacred

Anyways...


2ND VERSE:

Are we both at fault here?

I don't know how to steer this love into the clear

When you're just as bad at this, driving us into a dead end

There's so much we don't intend, so much we don't yet comprehend

So much of what I say is farfetched

I'm so incredulous to think we're end game

Mixed signals I'll receive if you think the same

It's what I percieve that drives me insane

Too far ahead, I failed to push the brakes

And there's only so much I can take

Before I crash into another heartbreak


PRE-CHORUS:

I hate to do this, you know I do

Especially after every thing I've put you through

You don't deserve this, I don't deserve you

But I can't bottle it in anymore

When I just came back from the drawing board


CHORUS:

Communication is key, but you locked it

How did two good people make this toxic?

And there's only so much I can take

Before I crash into another heartbreak

If you need space, then go ahead and take it

It's surely about time I quit worshipping you as sacred

Anyways...


BRIDGE:

I put you up on a pedestal

And you think too good of me

How could we both condone such a thing?

Tell me, is it plausible?

If it very much won't correlate

But I guess we'll leave it up to fate

Yet in the end we'll forever be to blame

For even straying this way


CHORUS:

Communication is key, but you locked it

How did two good people make this toxic?

And there's only so much I can take

Before I crash into another heartbreak

If you need space, then go ahead and take it

It's surely about time I quit worshipping you as sacred

Anyways...


3RD VERSE:

Communication is key, but I locked my voice in a box

When there never even was an Ursula

The waterfall's currents too deep

So I traded what I had for feet

To reach you at a decent speed

Will we ever walk the same road?

Every sign displayed another code

Words we'll never know if they haven't been told

And reading me is an unsolved puzzle

Or a mismatched direction

That could bring this love into resurrection


CHORUS:

Communication is key, but you locked it

How did two good people make this toxic?

And there's only so much I can take

Before I crash into another heartbreak

If you need space, then go ahead and take it

It's surely about time I quit worshipping you as sacred

Anyways...


OUTRO:

And it turns out we couldn't make it too far

If we couldn't jumpstart the car in our hearts

Tell me when we'll quit our trauma's scars

Cause they don't seem to fade like the daydreams did

I fear that at this point we're too different
