This is how it ends Not with a whisper but a bang Slammin' doors and broken picture frames Puffed-up pride and called-out names I ransom gold Peddle your wares on down the road Your manufactured love will stop the show For all the fools just passin' by Who have yet to get wise I never meant to break your heart I only meant to speak the truth Where do we go from here, my dear? I'll leave that up to you "This is for the best," is what you said Made-up debts, you claim, must be repaid Imaginary dragons waiting to be slain A narcissistic windmill rides I never meant to break your heart I only meant to speak the truth Where do we go from here, my dear? I'll leave that up to you I'll leave that up to you So this is how it ends Not with a whisper but a bang Slammin' doors and broken picture frames Puffed-up pride and called-out names I ransom gold Peddle your wares on down the road Your manufactured love will stop the show For all the fools just passin' by Who have yet to get wise I never meant to break your heart I only meant to speak the truth Where do we go from here, my dear? I'll leave that up to you
