Halfway

I thought our love meant that I was closer To the life that I truly wanted Now that it's really finally over I can tell it was holding me hostage I moved back to Brooklyn to find someone older Someone who won't leave me so exhausted I moved back to find someone else I could leave with 'Cause I want the house and the yard you were teasing And you let me down But that's okay 'cause we were gonna drown And I'll pack my things 'Cause this ain't how it always has to be A few weeks have passed I can see that you're hurting Even if it's not the same kind of burning I needed to know that it wasn't all rainbows This meeting is useful, even though it's painful I wish you would let it all out like you used to I wish you would cry because tears can be useful You hid under a blanket for more than that just that night It was always flight, you had no fight You hid from your feelings, while I dimmed the lights And you let me down It wasn't the other way around It's not like it was black and white It might never satisfy All of my questions And all that left was there And I know you said the final words It'll be your heart that hurts one day 'Cause I walked away I was playing pretend I was fucking upset And I combed it all over when talking with friends I bought tickets and flights To keep the fantasy alive And in the end you were only along for the ride And you let me down But that's ok 'cause we were gonna drown And I packed my things For two hours I forgot to breathe It's not like it was black and white It might never satisfy All of my questions And all that left was there And I know you said the final words But it'll be your heart that hurts One day, 'cause I walked away You wouldn't meet me halfway You wouldn't meet me halfway You wouldn't meet me halfway
