We're drifting apart Slowly but surely Snipping the strings of the heart I'm not speaking prematurely I feel it in the words you speak In the way you kiss You're losing your mystique I know something is amiss The light that once lit up your face is fading Sometimes it feels like talking to a stranger Where I once felt at home, I now feel like I'm invading I feel like I'm living in constant danger At any moment you may deal the final blow I don't want it to end I want to continue to grow And you will insist on still being my friend Whatever the hell that means Still the same messy end I'm tearing at the seams With the immanent evasion Awkward mono-syllable conversations Just the balancing of the equations The beginning and the end of relations
