Closure
The Burial of You and Me Lyrics

I’m so empty
Feeling lost and without purpose.

You’re so heartless
Showing no compassion or concern for others.

Did you even hear me shout for help
Wondering if the other person even paid attention to cries for assistance.

All the cries from the lies
The emotional pain caused by deceit and falsehood.

I know that you hate me now
Understanding that the other person no longer has any positive feelings towards oneself.

But how could I?
Expressing confusion as to how one could stop loving the other person despite the difficult situation.

With everything we went through
Reflecting on the shared life experiences and challenges.

Don’t know how I’ve come this far
Feeling unsure of how one has managed to cope and survive without the other person.

Without your touch
Missing physical and emotional connection with the other person.

You’ll always be my favorite what if
Holding onto the idea of a potential future that never came to pass as a source of comfort.

I still dream
Continuing to hope and imagine a different outcome.

Of you and me
Persisting in thoughts and fantasies of a relationship with the other person.

How it was meant to be
Believing that there was a predetermined destiny or fate for the relationship.

Us against the world baby
Fighting for the relationship despite external obstacles and opposition.

What if you and I
Pondering alternative paths the relationship could have taken.

We’re meant to part our separate ways
Considering the possibility that moving on from each other was necessary.

Just so that we could
Suggesting that the breakup may have ultimately led to growth and self-discovery.

Find each other
Expressing hope that the two may reconcile in the future.

And be together once again
Holding onto the possibility of rekindling the relationship at some point.

You said you’d still be here for years and years
Recalling a promise made by the other person that was not kept.

Now it’s just me saying it back to myself
Realizing that one has been holding onto false hope and promises.

Saying back to myself
Internalizing and repeating false promises and hopes.

I think I’m going crazy
Feeling overwhelmed and consumed by emotions and thoughts related to the failed relationship.

You never gave me closure.
Feeling a sense of unfinished business and emotional detachment from the other person due to lack of closure.

I know it’s over
Acknowledging and accepting the reality that the relationship has ended.

You couldn’t say it to my face
Feeling hurt and disrespected by the other person for not ending the relationship in a direct and honest way.

I know I’m not the one for you
Recognizing that the other person has moved on and has different priorities and preferences.

But I still believe
Continuing to hold onto hope despite evidence to the contrary.

You’re the one for me
Feeling deeply connected and committed to the other person despite the breakup.

But you’ll forever be
Acknowledging that, regardless of potential future relationships, the other person will always have a significant impact on one's life.

The one that got away from me
Reflecting on the missed opportunity and what could have been in the relationship.
