I don't believe in destiny
I like to live intentionally
You put all your faith in fate
So you never have to think about the
Weight of mistakes you didn't have to make
Weight of the flaws that you know you could change
I don't believe in destiny
It's just an excuse to me

You can't blame the universe
Just cause you won't put the work in
Sad to see a good thing go
But it's not like you deserved it

So don't pretend you had no control
Or try to tell me that you didn't know
I only slipped out of your hold
Cause you let me go

I didn't make some great escape
You know I wish I could've stayed
You won't ever take the blame, you'll say
I'm the one that got away

cway away away
You let me go
cway away away
You let me go
cway away away
You let me go

I'm sure that your family's wondering
How did we end up at the end
I bet you're telling them
Some kind of story bout how it wasn't
Working but nothing can work if you don't
Why would you think hurt can heal on its own
Love is an active choice you make
You threw it away

So don't pretend you had no control
Or try to tell me that you didn't know
I only slipped out of your hold
Cause you let me go

I didn't make some great escape
You know I wish I could've stayed
You won't ever take the blame, you'll say
I'm the one that got away

cway away away
cway away away
cway away away
cway away away

Say it's all out of your hands
Guess that's just your style
Go and do it all again
It's a spiral of denial

So don't pretend you had no control
Or try to tell me that you didn't know
I only slipped out of your hold
Cause you let me go

I didn't make some great escape
You know I wish I could've stayed
But you won't ever take the blame, you'll say
I'm the one that got away

cway away away
cway away away
cway away away
Cause you let me go
