Say Goodbye
Krewella Lyrics

This can't be how it ends
Expressing disbelief that the situation has come to its current conclusion.

Wasted in ignorance
Feeling like previous mistakes could have prevented the current outcome.

The bullets in your breath
The hurtful words spoken by the other person, stuck in one’s head.

Are all I know, all I know
The words spoken by the other person are the only thing that have left an impact and consumed one’s thoughts.

I'll never comprehend
Feeling lost and overwhelmed, as if the motives of the other person is hard to understand.

Why you left me for dead
Feeling like the other person abandoned one and cut off ties, especially during tough times.

Promises broke and bent
The other person didn't come through on what they said they would.

I'm all alone, all alone
Feeling like one is left to face the situation alone.

One more word before I break
One last plea to get the other person to listen before it is too much.

Look before you fall from grace
Be aware of the consequences of one’s actions before it ruins one’s reputation or status.

Read my lips and shut your face
Stop talking and realize how one’s words have affected the other person before indulging in heated arguments.

Maybe you're the one to blame
Suggesting that the other person may be responsible for contributing to the current situation.

Same old story every day
Feeling frustrated with the repetitive nature of one’s daily problems and issues.

Trip and fall and run away
Trying to keep oneself safe during tough times, rather than facing the situation head-on.

The truth is gonna find you
Clearly reminding the other person that the truth will eventually come out.

It's burning up inside you
Suggesting that the other person is restless and struggling internally.

The demons in your head
The other person's internal struggles and negative thoughts.

Whispering sweet revenge
Feeling the urge to act out in negative ways and to seek revenge.

The hands around your neck
Feeling constricted and trapped, as if one's entire life has been taken over by their struggles.

Take control, take control
Urging oneself to take control of the situation and not let the struggles take control.

My fingers on the ledge
Feeling close to the brink or edge of mental stability.

Slipping with every threat
Losing hope and progress with every negative threat one faces.

I won't succumb to this
Refusing to let oneself give in to the negativity and struggles of the situation.

So let me go, let me go
Reaching a breaking point where one can't take it anymore and needs to be freed from the situation.

It still kills me
The pain and hurt from the situation is still strong.

That I can't change things
Feeling helpless and unable to change the outcome of the situation.

But I'm still dreaming
Holding onto hope and believing that things will eventually get better.

I'll rewrite the ending
Finding a way to change the outcome and to get the happy ending that one desires.

So you'll take back the lies
Wanting the other person to take back the hurtful words they said.

Before we say our goodbyes, say our goodbyes
Trying one last time to make things right before moving on and ending the relationship.
