This time break my heart,
Tell me you have issues,
That it’s not the right time,
That you don’t see how this could work.
This time break my heart,
I give you the right,
Not a speech from my depths,
About why you should stay,
About growth, mistakes and learning,
Or the intense desire I have for you.
This time break my heart,
So I can agree with you and walk away,
From a love that has tortured more than lightened my load,
Break my heart so I can walk away and never look back,
So I can see you the way all others do,
So I can say it’s okay that I tried and failed,
So you can finally watch me leave.
