Just be honest for once…
Even if you can’t be true
You know silence
can be an answer, too
We both know how I’ve tried
To break through the walls
that surround you
…walls you built around you…
You know I love you but
I’m bleeding from a thousand cuts..

Just no way to end this…
softly and sweetly…nicely and neatly
So show me some mercy…leave me
quickly
Don’t drag this out
Or try to keep me.
…Leave me quickly
…and completely
Cause a one sided love affair
Isn’t love and it isn’t fair.


You know how hard I’ve tried
How many nights I’ve cried
How many times you’ve lied
How I’ve beaten myself up
Thinking I’m not good enough
Always having to tiptoe
Around your fragile ego
You know I love you but
I'm bleeding from a thousand cuts...
and enough is enough...

Just no way to end this…
softly and sweetly…nicely and neatly
So show me some mercy…leave me quickly
Don’t drag this out
Or try to keep me.
…Leave me quickly
…and completely
Cause a one sided love affair
Isn’t love and it isn’t fair.
