There comes a time when you just have to realize that something might be over. There’s nothing you did or didn’t do. That’s just life, but it’s frustrating when you feel like you’re the only person feeling anything – in any sort of relationship, romantic or otherwise. Right….?
Just layed all my feelings on the line
What if I started the conversation I’ve been having in my head
Would that at least start a fight
It was those parts we played that broke our hearts and tore us apart
I was the giver, you were the taker
You were the fighter, I was the peacemaker
So it looks like I might as well surrender
We’re not getting anywhere tonight
And I shouldn’t have to fight for all the memories I’m trying to remember
So just go home
Because in the end, baby, there are just some things
We’ll never know
The awkward silence is all too loud
Your cutting words, they just drown me
Before I can get out of this mess you’ve made
Is it really too late?
It was those parts we played that broke our hearts and tore us apart
I was the giver, you were the taker
You were the fighter, I was the peacemaker
So it looks like I might as well surrender
We’re not getting anywhere tonight
And I shouldn’t have to fight for all the memories I’m trying to remember
So just go home
Because in the end, baby, there are just some things
We’ll never know
‘Cuz you’re feeling nothing
Damn, I wish you felt something
Why am I the only one saying all thoae words you know we’re both thinking
It shouldn’t hurt this much, the things we discover
So I’ll just surrender
So it looks like I might as well surrender
We’re not getting anywhere tonight
And I shouldn’t have to fight for all the memories I’m trying to remember
So just go home
Because in the end, baby, there are just some things
We’ll never know
Surrender
Surrender
Surrender…
Please just go home
‘Cuz I don’t want to know…
xoxo,

OceanDreams says
That is so sad yet very beautiful, sometimes sweetly surrendering is the best thing we can do.
Karyn Bernard (French Charming) says
Gorgeous photo and I can totally relate to these words. I think most people that have found love then lost it can probably relate.
Beautiful post Melissa and I hope your week is off to a fabulous start!
Joyce says
Very well written- you do have a gift with words. xoxo
Rebecca Anne says
I somewhat feel we identify with each other alot.
This oddly relates to my recent hopelessness ive discovered just last night.
You're a very talented writer.
You're someone who can put how I feel into words.
