I'm not well As you can tell By the way i haven't looked you in the eye And i'm about to lie And say i'm fine But inside, you and i know that's not true But it's either this or let my burdens weigh on you And that i just can't do So i'll choose for the both of us And you'll just go along because You've trusted me for no good reason Here i am committing treason I'll force the last page of our story One more boring allegory I hope to god you'll rise above me I always bite the hand that loves me And mine is the "unkindest cut of all" I'll watch you fall And i'm aware That it's not fair To bring you here, then send you on your way You had so much to say And to ask Like "why am i not cut out for the task Of loving you forever, of holding you and never wanting less?" I can take a guess; See, i could choose for the both of us And you'd just go along because You're trusting me for no good reason You love no matter what the season And i'd force the ending of our story You're my favourite allegory Then hope to god that you'll forgive me My mistakes will long outlive me And mine is the "unkindest cut of all" I'll watch us fall And i don't know if this makes it any easier Perhaps you'll find some comfort when i say You and i are nothing more than meteors Never meant to live long past today So i'll choose for the both of us And you'll just go along because You've trusted me against your judgement You deserve someone who doesn't Force the last page of your story No more boring allegories Hope to god you'll rise above me Though you'll always be part of me Mine is the "unkindest cut of all" I'll watch you fall Now watch me fall
