This is not the end We're just taking a break For the sake of my sense of well-being I can not pretend That all of the mistakes that I've made Haven't left me feeling shame I'm not the same when I'm with you But I can't keep using that excuse I need to cut you loose. You will suck me dry I'll watch my fortunes burn As I learn that I'm better without you So much passed me by While I was your slave But the haze feels like it's about to clear And now I fear that you're the Heart and soul of what it means to be With you gone, am I still me? I'm not sayin' you're no good for someone else I'm doin' this for myself Now I have the chance to change Don't know how many more I'll get But I can't keep waking up In a spinning room To the stench of stale regret It's not the end, it's just a break Don't know long 'til I return To find this lesson's one I should have learned to learn. When we meet again You'll be all that I need, and I plead That I'll find you less tempting Every now and then A reunion's allowed But I've vowed that I'll follow my empty dreams I see a theme emerging Where my will is urging me to lose And I'll come running back to you.
