I...
I just want to wait it all out
Maybe if I cry enough tears I can drown
But I...
I don't want to make any more holes
And I don't want to feel any weaker
So why, why can't we pretend
That this never happened

Next time, maybe, I'll withstand your storm
And next time, I will try to be prepared
Next time I won't get that close
I'll know what's hot enough to burn me
I find it hard to care
That you "didn't mean to"
Next time, I won't be so naive
And I'll be more than ready

So I...
I will find a way out
And I will not sacrifice myself for you
I...
I am growing old
And tired of litanies of lies
You will not meet my eyes
As you apologize
But I don't need you to
