The Kindest Thing

Wake up to your call at 6: 00 am

I've been sleeping fine it's clear you haven't been

I thought I turned my phone off, won't make that mistake again

How could there be any more to say?

Let's not talk for the thousandth time

You've said your peace and I've said mine

I'm thinking it's too late

(Cause on and on we'd go)

Cause I've been trying to let go of you

But you hold on like you always do

Trying to make me think you've changed

Cause on and on we'd go

If I don't stand for what I know

I'm not stringing you along

Into thinking it's a perfect love song

Where we kiss and make up

No honey, this song is a breakup

Cause being kind to you

Is the meanest thing that I could ever do

Was it love or was it just a habit?

A pattern I create and then I crash it?

Can't say yes or no or if we ever had it

But somehow I knew, we'd end up this way

So let's not talk for the thousandth time

You've said your peace and I've said mine

I'm thinking it's too late

Cause I've been trying to let go of you

But you hold on like you always do

I won't make the same mistake

Cause on and on we'd go

If I don't stand for what I know

I'm not stringing you along

Into thinking it's a perfect love song

Where we kiss and make up

No honey, this song is a breakup

Cause being kind to you

Is the meanest thing that I could ever do

Time won't make me love you

I won't waste my heart on what I know isn't true

How many times can I say goodbye? Goodbye?

Being mean to you

Is the kindest thing that I could do

I'm not stringing you along

Into thinking it's a perfect love song

Where we kiss and make up

No honey, this song is a breakup

Cause being kind to you

Is the meanest thing that I could ever do

(Cause on and on we'd go)

(Cause on and on we'd go)

(Cause on and on we'd go)

(Cause on and on we'd go)

(Cause on and on we'd go)

(Cause on and on we'd go)
