Artery

You walk in and out of my trust

As if it’s just some thing you got for free

Oh but there’s a crack in us

And I just cannot give you love

If you don’t see it

I’d rather be lonely

I’d rather be blue

I’d rather have no one to call

Than to crawl right back to you

And even though it hurts to leave you this message

I can’t be the one to clean up your messes

I’m through

Goodbye

To your lies

To this heart ache

There’s only so much I can take

I open up this artery

And cut it out so I can breathe

Or else there will be nothing left of me

You asked me to give you time

You say you’re trying but it’s hard to believe

You just build me up to break

With all those promises you make

But you don’t keep

I’d rather be lonely

I’d rather be blue

I’d rather have no one to call

Than to crawl right back to you

And even though it hurts to leave you this message

I can’t be the one to clean up your messes

I’m through

Goodbye

To your lies

To this heart ache

There’s only so much I can take

I open up this artery

And cut it out so I can breathe

Or else there will be nothing left of me
