If I called on you to answer
Well I should have known you'd guessed
What I could of had
But I could not fix
So I relegate your promise
With irreverence I rest
Like a memory I remember
Only in this
Goodbyes and endings
Pain, painfully dull and painless
Pain, painfully dull and painless
Can I be honest?
Ohhhh
Ohhhh
And if I cannot be still,
Would you be alone?
Would you care?
Could it be enough
If I learn
How to turn it off?
And if I cannot be still
Would you be alone?
Would you care?
Could it be enough
If I learn
How to turn it off?
And so I gravitate forward
With a syllable that sticks
What I didn't know but I
Should have guessed
And I'm still waiting on that answer
Well I could of let you in
Like a memory I remember
Only in this
Goodbyes and endings
Pain, painfully dull and painless
Pain, painfully dull and painless
Can I be honest?
Ohhhh
Ohhhh
And if I cannot be still
Would you be alone?
Would you care?
Could it be enough
If I learn
How to turn it off?
And if I cannot be still
Would you be alone?
Would you care?
Could it be enough
If I learn
How to turn it off?
Oh, oh, this does not end
Oh, oh, this does not end
Oh, oh, this does not end
Oh, oh, this does not end
