Mirrors

lyrics

Take one look in the mirror
and tell yourself
you're better without him here.

Take one look at her,
and realize you’ve made the biggest mistake,
you’re the reason why this failed to work.

We've grown apart
it's too late to start
this love all over again.

And I’ve pushed away
the only honest love that I’ve ever felt
because I couldn’t keep up
with the pressure I put on myself.

I'll miss the way you'd smile and say,
"You're lovely."
But this coffee's gotten cold,
I could never drink it alone.

I fell behind from the pace that you set,
said, “I can’t wait for you, clean yourself up, you’re a mess.”
I’m not good with change, I’ll admit
but I’m trying my best to be the love you can’t forget.

It’s hard to function, stay up with assumptions,
white pills in hand cause I just have to feel something.
Been feeling numb since the last day lips were touching.
It’s just another drunken night, for me it’s nothing.

I am strong, I am beautiful
I don't need to stay.
But without you here.
I couldn't face another day.

One day, one day maybe we will be,
but for now, I need to focus on me.

My god what the hell have I done?
How many times could I say sorry
for you to believe in just one?
My fault I told you to open your heart,
but I closed mine, so selfish.
Can’t be surprised that you’re gone

This here's my promise,
this here's my word
that when I come back, I'll be better, I'll be smarter
I'll become what you deserve.

Please don't say this is it,
your hand in mine for one last time,
just pull me in close.
Remember all the love we shared,
this pain was unprepared
but it's so hard to let go.
