Leaving Is the Only Way Out
Finding Solace: Embracing Departure for Healing
Lyrics
I'm not sayin' I have all the answers
I acknowledge that I don't possess all the solutions.
And I don't care who's right or wrong
I am indifferent to determining who is right or wrong.
I'm tryin' to pick up the pieces already fallen
I am attempting to reconcile and gather the pieces that have already fallen apart.
And put them back where they belong
My goal is to restore the pieces to their proper places.
So slow down your horses
I request a slowing down of actions or events.
Stop draggin' me around
Stop causing me distress or discomfort.
And if cryin' is the only way into your heart
If expressing emotions through tears is the only way to reach your heart.
Then leavin' is the only way out
Then the act of leaving becomes the only solution.
We've slammed every door in anger
We have reacted with anger, shutting off all opportunities for resolution.
And we've opened wounds we can't mend
We have caused wounds that are beyond repair.
And one night lonely is one night too many
Experiencing a single lonely night is already too much.
Don't want to wake up to one more night that won't end
I don't want to face another night that seems endless.
So slow down your horses
Again, urging a slowdown in actions or events.
Stop draggin' me around
Stop subjecting me to distress or discomfort.
And if cryin' is the only way into your heart
If shedding tears is the only way to connect with your emotions.
Then leavin' is the only way out
Then the sole resolution is to leave the situation.
When late nights and long lies came knockin'
When confronted with challenges and dishonesty.
You just invited them in
You willingly allowed them to affect us.
And our voices got too loud for talkin'
Our disagreements escalated to a point where communication broke down.
Then my heart hit the floor
My emotional distress reached a low point.
But your feet just kept walkin'
Despite this, you continued to distance yourself.
And if cryin' is the only way you hear me hurtin'
If expressing pain through tears is the only way to make you understand.
For the lovin' that I can't live without
It's for the love that is essential to my well-being.
And if lovin' ain't the only way into your heart
If love alone isn't enough to reach your emotions.
Then leavin' is the only way out
Then the only viable option is to leave.
Oh, leavin' is the only way out
Reiterating that leaving is the only viable course of action.
