You could say you’re being honest
But, I know that you’d be guilty
If you said you still didn't miss me, and...
I got to thinking about what you said
It took a hold like a lover’s notion
Just like the ebb and flowing of ocean can
Just like a shiny gun your hand
You’re finger pointed blame away from yourself
But, don’t you know when you blame always boomerangs back
So, if we’re going to do this
Then, we’re going to do this without dragging it out
Say what we mean when we scream and shout
Try our best to play on the other one’s doubt
And, just get it over with
Destroy the bridge we built
By digging a ditch in the silt beneath it
As your mouth shot off bullets
I ran through the moments of our love
Cursing myself for not recognizing where the two of us would someday land
Now it resonates like cymbals and drums
The fights we should have had, but let go of instead
Thinking it’d be best to clamp our tongues when instead they should’ve bled
So, if we’re going to do this
Then, we’re going to do this without dragging it out
Say what we mean when we scream and shout
Try our best to play on the other one’s doubt
And, just get it over with
Destroy the bridge we built
By digging a ditch in the silt beneath it
And, just let the river run red
With the words we should’ve said back when
Those words could’ve been forgiven
Instead of leaving us so separated and unforgiven
