about

This song is about longing for the love you broke it off with because you knew the worse was yet to come.

lyrics

I know
I'm the one who left you and
I'm the one who hurt you but
that doesn't mean that I don't want you

If only you could feel my pain
but I know
you've quite enough of yours to stomach
our void, our void


I know you know it too, it had to be done
And now we're both alone bleeding and numb


I know
I need to do this laundry
but I can't when it's the only scent of you I have
I miss your smell and touch so much

I still feel your hands moving on my body
I still taste your salty warm wetness
I still feel your fingers dancing on my skin


I know you know it too, it had to be done
Before we destroyed each other with our bombs and guns


Which is worse?
Your anger or this void?
I don't know, but does it matter?
This destruction continues either way.

It was hard to sit there like a stone as you begged me to stay
But I know the worse was yet to come if I failed


I know you know it too, it had to be done
Before we destroyed each other with our bombs and guns

I know you know I'll love you forever
So get your shit together and come back for me
