Staying/Leaving

Worthless silent stretches Intimidation tactics only lessen My ability to tolerate the pressure Of solving all our problems on my own Going through the motions Forcing compromises in the open Faking happiness to cover all the broken Promises you made along the way Erratic swinging inbetween extemes Avoid saying exactly what you mean You'd probably be content to play pretend But staying feels a lot like giving in You're a stock character Wasting my precious time I could never keep that pace For that long anyway Intent on living every single dream Without the consequences it would bring You'd probably be content to play pretend And leaving feels a lot like giving in You're a stock character Wasting my precious time I could never keep that pace For that long anyway I'm not supposed to leave You're the one who's really s'posed To break things off with me You play the victim here Like i strung you up and left you there To goddamn disappear
