the end

we didnt know but i
can say from the end
of the road that we
were destined to fall apart
right from the beginning
from the first breath of
i love you
from the first confession
of forever
from the first look
in our eyes when we
talked about our future

opposites attract they say
they said we were perfect
they said we would live
on holding each others hands
as the earth burned
from the sun
our love was more flammable
than the sun
we ended up burning each
other down to ashes

you tried to put my fire
out with your tears as i told
you i couldnt do this anymore
i remembered to make eye contact
and give you reasons why
i tried to be gentle as i ripped out
your heart and crushed your future
i was a paradox and you
couldnt figure out the key to
unravel the monster i became when
i kept telling you
the end the end the end

we tried to forget our flaws
and be a perfect love but
that is inexistent
there is no such thing as
flawless and perfect love
but yet we tried
it was a part of our downfall
you kept trying to be optimistic
and kept telling me that our
fate was to be together
for centuries
but i brought the reality back down
to you and kept saying that
our destiny may end

and it did i gutted our love
and was a contradiction as i ripped
out our dying love from your
hands and killed it and left you
to pieces and i hope to god
that all you see me as is a monster
because then youll hate me and it will
be easier for you to move on but
knowing you
if i called for you to burn something
down for me
youd light a match in an instant
