The last time.

Four years, and I always saw this in your eyes,
But you did rationalize so well.
Feign sincere, but you always spoke to soothe my doubt,
And you really didn't think this out so well.
Now we're here, I've finally found your fatal flaw,
And you knew this was the last time.
Sorry, dear, but you know I've waited too long,
And it's not my fault that you never tried.
For weeks you didn't say one word,
And good for me, you couldn't fool me a third time.
Nothing speaks quite as loud as actions can,
So tell me, what was your plan, baby?
Bittersweet, the day I knew this wouldn't work,
What you'd known for so long.
You can't compete, despite the feelings that won't go away,
It's not your fault we're just wrong.
This is the last song you'll get out of me.
These are the last words you'll hear me speak.
So when you find you're alone and unable to sleep,
Close your eyes and regret all the things you never did.
Think of me, baby, and all the words you should have said.
