I’m not trying to ruin all Your(our) pretty lies But I do not think I can go down This Road that we’ve built for our future I know when the sun melts into the trees I'll be standing on this cliffs edge with nothing but regret If I stay here playing house with you The love lost between us has jagged edges And I do not want our children caught on them The tension laid taunt and suffocating between us has encased us so wholly that I must break it first before we suffocate moving swiftly I climb off this precipice we’ve run ourselves onto Listen darling I’ve reached through time and if I leave now I'll see you aged older with a fond kindness instead of bitter hate Lets us mature into the people who put down guilt and anger In the name of what this love has gifted us instead -I gave you a younger version of my heart thank you for doing good by it -it's time to go

What Happens When You Set Up A Paper House
I’m not trying to ruin all Your(our) pretty lies But I do not think I can go down This Road that we’ve built for our future I know when the sun melts into the trees I'll be standing on this cliffs edge with nothing but regret If I stay here playing house with you The love lost between us has jagged edges And I do not want our children caught on them The tension laid taunt and suffocating between us has encased us so wholly that I must break it first before we suffocate moving swiftly I climb off this precipice we’ve run ourselves onto Listen darling I’ve reached through time and if I leave now I'll see you aged older with a fond kindness instead of bitter hate Lets us mature into the people who put down guilt and anger In the name of what this love has gifted us instead -I gave you a younger version of my heart thank you for doing good by it -it's time to go
