Your Beautiful Ending
I heard you say
That you don't feel like you're worth saving
If it's all the same
Well you can put the blame on me
I looked into your eyes to find the light
I've been gone for years and there are only tears left
But it came so soon
1983 on a Monday afternoon
Don't make it better for me
I wish you'd just stop pretending
Everyone is here for you
Your life is beautiful and...
And you better hold me down
Stand me up, keep me safe, while I'm falling to pieces
And, and tell me how I should bid if all I've known is to break
You didn't have to lie, I know you tried
You took what they give, expecting time to heal you
But it came so soon
It was…3:11 on a Tuesday afternoon
Don't make it better for me
I wish you'd just stop pretending
Everyone is here for you
This is your beautiful ending
This is your beautiful ending
No one ever takes, your place
No one ever really smiles quite like you
I wish I knew the words, to say
Other than goodbye…
To the sound of delight
It's so much harder for me
Cause you were so undefended
Oh, I don't think you ever knew
(I don't think you ever knew)
It was so beautiful and…
Don't make it better on me
I wish you'd just stop pretending
We're all here waitin' for you
This is your beautiful ending
This is your beautiful ending
This is your beautiful…
You were so…
