She walks out the door
with a paper bag of memories in her hand
He's too tired to stop her in her tracks
and say "Hey won't you come back down?"
He slouches in his chair
And polishes off the cereal
From the box
This is not the first time that he's seen
Everything between
Obsession and reality fade away
He says "I made a point to never say forever
I made a point to never say forever"
She calls him on the phone
Says "Guess I should have known from the begining
You boys are all the same
I never should have trusted you, I never should have trusted you"
He says "I made a point to never say forever
I made a point to never say forever
'Cause every time I give up anything
You break me So let's just keep it casual this time
"If I don't say forever
Then you can't guess I ever would
You can't guess I'll fall apart"
He picks up a pen
and writes it all down on a napkin
This will be the last time that he ever may think
"I'm finally gonna be alone
It's all that I can be"
