One look, and it's clear
You start to talk but I don't want to hear
You said "It's time to stop, time to stop pretending
You think I'm so sweet but the truth is that I'm just repenting"

You can't trust, you can't feel
Can't let me close to you in case I see you for real
And it's not my fault, you say you just need time
And I've got to walk away without knowing why

But it's alright, I know fear
It's something we could have faced over the years
But you looked away, smile sad, a little sigh
You took a sip of your wine and I shut my eyes

And I begged you, not to go
You were taking my life, the one that I'll never know
But you'd packed your bags, set to roll, just one thing more
I died as I heard the keys pushed through the door

All told, I don't know
But did I see tears in your eyes when you were turning to go
You won't take a chance, closing ranks, building walls
It's like I never knew your heart at all

Chorus
I called it in a rut
You called it falling out of love
I see the whole thing now
We were running out of air
I said that I could change
But I'm always the same
