Tears Dry On Their Own

All I can ever be to you

Is the darkness that we knew,

And this regret I've got accustomed to.

Once it was so right,

When we were at our high,

Waiting for you at night.

I knew I hadn't met my match,

But every moment we could snatch,

I don't know why I got so attached.

It's my responsibility,

And you don't owe nothing to me,

But to walk away I have no capacity.

He walks away,

The sun goes down,

He takes the day

But I'm grown,

And in your way,

In this blue shade

My tears dry on their own.

I don't understand

Why do I stress a man

When there's so many bigger things at hand.

We coulda never had it all,

We had to hit a wall,

So this is inevitable withdrawal.

Even if I stop wanting you,

A perspective pushes through,

I'll be some next man's other woman soon.

I shouldn't play myself again,

I should just be my own best friend,

Not fuck myself in the head with men.

So we are history,

Your shadow covers me

The sky above,

A blaze that only lovers see,

I wish I could say no regrets,

And no emotional debts,

'Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets
