lyrics

weeks on end with these headphones echoing "i won't give up"
i tried to convince you to fight for me but you never fucking tried
you spent your nights in arms of others instead of trying to save us

i can still hear the remnants of that voice at the end of your driveway
as you whispered those words to me for the first time
after years of friendship it finally felt like you were mine for good
you took me by surprise and i fell even harder that night

i remember the days i told myself that this conscious mind would never break
and i remember feeling so sure about all the choices that i'd made
but i've gotten to a point where i'm not sure about anything anymore
and i keep telling myself, reminding myself i will be okay

packing up my shit was one of the hardest things i had to do
but you left me with no choice and i was stupid enough to believe that
one day you'd realise what you were throwing away
you never did, you think you've moved on to better things
and that you got your own way

i remember the days i told myself that this conscious mind would never break
and i remember feeling so sure about all the choices that i'd made
but i've gotten to a point where i'm not sure about anything anymore
and i keep telling myself, reminding myself i will be okay

all the words and promises you turned your back on
don't hurt as much as they did 5 months ago
time didn't wait for me, the world kept turning
it was up to me to make the choice to pick myself up off the floor
and face my fears, put these hole-worn shoes on
and step out the front door
just step out the front door
