SAY NO
Saying Goodbye to Love's Burden
Lyrics
You're as fragile as a flower but you are the one I picked
You are delicate like a flower, and I chose you.
Your petals multicolored I thought you were just perfect
Your qualities seemed perfect to me with multicolored petals.
I had a love for you but you opened up the gate
I had love for you, but you allowed a change.
But when the gates are opened our flowers separate
When the gates opened, our paths diverged.
I put on a smiley face and hide the sad for my own sake
To protect myself, I wear a smile and hide sadness.
So I don't show the stress around you
I conceal stress when around you.
When I'm alone just like before
Alone, I feel as I did before.
I feel my feet sink through the floor
I sense instability, my feet sinking through the floor.
And all our light has lost it's own way
All the light between us has lost direction.
And it started with you and I noticed that giving love for you is a chore
Realizing that loving you has become a burdensome task.
And it dragged on with us because we want to be strong
We endure to be strong, but the purpose is unclear.
But what was it for
Questioning the reason for the endurance.
And it ended with me
The relationship concluded with me.
Cause I couldn't take the hurt anymore
Unable to endure the pain any longer.
And I want to love you but I got to say no and walk out the door
I want to love you, but I have to say no and leave.
Just walk out the door
Emphasizing the decision to leave.
I got problems and you've got them too
We both have problems, struggling with plans.
Every time we make a plan you can't follow through
Your inability to follow through on plans is a recurring issue.
you say that we're okay but I know it isn't true
You claim we're okay, but I doubt the truth.
All I want to know is what did I do to you
Questioning the cause of the relationship's deterioration.
I trust my thoughts with you but it didn't go as planned
I trusted you with my thoughts, but it didn't go as expected.
I guess with all my friendships you get hurt and then it ends
Friendships end in pain, and I lack a clear purpose.
I have no real purpose just to eat and sleep and sing
Life seems purposeless, focusing on basic needs.
All the liars tell me different because all they want to hear is if I'm happy
Others misunderstand my happiness for their benefit.
And it started with you and I noticed that giving love for you is a chore
Realizing that loving you feels like a chore.
And it dragged on with us because we want to be strong
Enduring the relationship for strength without clear purpose.
But what was it for
Questioning the purpose of enduring hardships.
And it ended with me because I couldn't take the hurt anymore
Ending the relationship due to unbearable pain.
And I want to love you but I got to say no and walk out the door
Wanting to love you but needing to say no and leave.
Just walk out the door
Reiterating the decision to walk away.
And you will blame it on me
Anticipating blame, but seeing the truth.
But I can clearly see
Clear perception of responsibility.
That it started with you and I've noticed that giving love for you is a chore
Recognizing the burden of giving love to you.
And it dragged on with us because we want to be strong
Enduring the relationship for strength without clear purpose.
But what was it for
Questioning the purpose of enduring hardships.
And it ended with me because I couldn't take the hurt anymore
Ending the relationship due to unbearable pain.
And I want to love you but I got to say no and walk out the door
Wanting to love you but needing to say no and leave.
Yeah it started with you and I've noticed that giving love for you is a chore
Reiterating the feeling that loving you is a chore.
And it dragged on with us because we want to be strong but what was it for
Enduring the relationship for strength without clear purpose.
And it ended with me because I couldn't take the hurt anymore
Questioning the purpose of enduring hardships.
And I want to love you but I got to say no and walk out the door
Ending the relationship due to unbearable pain.
Yeah I want to love you and I'll do it for us
Expressing the desire to love but choosing to leave.
I'll walk out that door
Committing to walking out the door.
I'll walk out the door
Reiterating the decision to walk away.
