Expiration Date
Pomplamoose Lyrics

Waiting for nothing to start
I am waiting for something to happen between us, but it seems like it won't ever start.

It's getting late
Time is running out and we might never get anywhere if we keep waiting.

Why don't we call it a day
Maybe it's time we end things between us and move on.

I could easily go for a drink
I could use a drink to ease the tension and emotions that come with this conversation.

Watching you shrink
I see you become smaller as I try to distance myself from you.

This isn't easy to say
It's hard for me to express these emotions and thoughts that I have been keeping inside.

But I'd like to get over
I want to move on and forget about you.

I'd like to get over you
I want to forget about us and move on with my life.

Never knew love was a fad
I thought our love was real and would last forever, but it seems like it was just a temporary trend.

You fooled me bad
You deceived me and made me believe that our love was real and would last.

Wish you were easy to hate
It would be easier for me to move on if I could hate you, but I can't.

But I'm stuck in the middle for now
I am torn between my feelings for you and my desire to move on.

Wondering how
I am trying to figure out how to move on and forget about you.

I entertain this debate
I am debating whether to stay or to leave, whether to hold on or let go.

Why did you stop
I am wondering what changed and caused you to stop doing the things that made me fall in love with you.

Doing the things you did
I miss the things you used to do that made me feel loved and special.

To make me fall
You used to do things that made me fall in love with you, but now you don't.

When did you start
I am trying to figure out when you started doing things that made me doubt our love.

Framing my dreams
You are trying to control my dreams and make them revolve around you.

To hang on your white walls
You are trying to make my dreams fit into your idea of the perfect life and future.

Dinner for two lost it's taste
The romantic moments we used to share have lost their meaning and significance to me.

When I embraced
When I accepted your leftovers and gave up on chasing something better.

All of your leftover bait
You used to give me just enough to keep me hooked, but now that is not enough.

And I wish we had never gone stale
I wish our love had not lost its freshness and become unappetizing and unfulfilling.

But who could tell
It's hard to predict when or why love will become stale and lose its spark.

Your expiration date
Our love has reached its end and there is no way to save it or make it last any longer.

Stop
I want you to stop occupying my mind and thoughts.

Wandering through my mind
You are still in my mind and I can't seem to get rid of you.

As you once were
I want you to be the way you used to be before our love went stale and expired.

Start
I need to start hoping and looking for something or someone new.

Hoping that I'll come back
You hope that I will return to you, but it's too late and I can't go back to what we had.

When you're the last man on earth
Only when there is no one else left will I consider going back to you.

I guess that I should have known
I should have seen the signs and realized that our love was not going to last.

Throw the first stone
If you think you are perfect and have never made a mistake, then you can judge me.

If you feel perfect today
Don't judge me unless you are perfect yourself and have never made a mistake.

Oh I'd like to get over
I want to move on and forget about our past love.

I'd like to get over you
I want to move on from our expired love and start living my life without you.
