lyrics

Goodbye’s not welcome this time of year,
Said, “I suggest you leave without one, dear.”
She’s not very far; pour myself down to the car,
And as time passes by, she trickles away.

The stoplights all beg,
“Stop the chase.”
The sunlight is harsh,
“You’re too late.”

Don’t suggest this is fate,
Accelerate
The side mirrors taunt,
“They’re closer than they appear”

As I approach
Her suitcase unveils to me
Just hold on.

But if a second is all you have,
That’s all I really need.
Could I convince you not to go,
Or is forgiveness too much-

You craved perfection,
I was lost in translation.
You’re a shadow of what I loved.
I’m tired of you begging me to stay.

Just let me go!
If not my sake, then yours.
I wanna take control for once.

Don’t take this away from me!
You’ve taken enough from me.
I never satisfied your needs.
What makes you think,
That I could ever now!



But if a second is all you have,
That’s all I really need.
Could I convince you not to go,
Or is forgiveness too much ask.
‘Cause my reflection is all I have,
I can’t do this on my own.
I’m begging for a second chance,
So help me up off my knees-

I’ll tell you something you’ve never been told,
I don’t love you anymore!
And if it can’t get through your thick skull,
Well then just fuck off and leave me alone!

Accelerate through departure lane,
Take a look it’ll be the same
Empty view. Your eyes hold nothing,
Until you learn to let go.
