Down in Flames
Love's Collapse: Tired Radio's Emotionally Charged Downfall
Lyrics
The great love that we built
The significant love we constructed
I guess it wasn't great at all
I realize it wasn't truly great
It collapsed pretty fast and you slipped away
It fell apart quickly, and you left
And i'm working through the guilt
I'm grappling with guilt
It was mostly my own fault
Mainly my fault
You see I never learned how to communicate properly
I never learned to communicate effectively
There's a guy knocking at my door
A person is at my door
Begging for me to hear the word of his lord
Begging to share his lord's word
But I don't give a shit
I don't care
I don't need the threat of hell
I don't fear hell's threat
To make me wanna treat others well
I believe in love, not magic
I believe in love but I don't believe in magic
The way that it once felt
To embrace you
To hold you in my arms
A jolt to muscle memory
It's a slap in the face of muscle memory
The void in my heart's space
The vacancy you left
Reflects all you meant to me persistently
In the space that was my heart
Reminds me of all that you meant to me relentlessly
Wait, I have something to express
Hold on I got something to say
Hard to believe but it's true
I gave all that I had and you still ran away
I stood by you then and still do
You won't believe it but I swear it's the truth
Accepted we're not meant to be
I was there for you then and i'm here for you now too
In dreams, you're still present when I sleep
And i've accepted that we're not meant to be
Repeated acknowledgment of the truth
But when I fall asleep you're in all of my dreams still
There for you then and here until the end
Already said it but I wanna be clear
I was there for you then and Im here till i'm not here
I'll face destruction, familiar territory
I'll go down in flames i'm sure
But it's nothing that I haven't faced before
