Verse 1 You still look at me like I’m something you’ll keep Like you don’t already know how temporary we sleep I laugh when you talk like I don’t see the end But I see it in everything we pretend You’re sweet in a way that makes it worse Like I’m waiting for the kindness to turn into a curse And I hate that I can already trace The moment you stop looking at my face ⸻ Pre-Chorus I should feel safe, I should feel sure But I’ve been here before ⸻ Chorus So just go already — don’t make it slow Don’t teach me how it feels when you let go I can feel it coming like a locked door clicking shut And I’d rather it hurt once than love too much So just go already — if that’s what you’ll do Don’t make me beg for a version of you I don’t want slow erosion, I don’t want a scene Just end it clean ⸻ Verse 2 I start pulling away before you even move Like I’m trying to outsmart what I already assume You say “we’re fine” like it means it’ll stay But fine is just a softer way to decay Maybe I should be the one to disappear first Cut it off before it gets to the worst But I stay because I’m stupid enough to believe You might be the one who doesn’t leave ⸻ Pre-Chorus But hope feels louder right before it dies And I can hear it every time you lie ⸻ Chorus So just go already — if you’re halfway out Don’t make me sit here and figure it out I can taste the ending every time you stay Like we’re just delaying the inevitable day So just go already — don’t make it drag Don’t turn something real into something I’ll regret having had If you’re gonna break me, do it mean Not like a dream turning obscene ⸻ Bridge (darker, more exposed) I don’t trust good things anymore They always change into something I can’t ignore And you’re too kind when you’re not supposed to be That’s exactly what scares the hell out of me Because I’ve learned love doesn’t announce when it leaves It just gets quieter until nobody sees ⸻ Final Chorus So just go already — don’t make me wait Don’t turn “us” into something I hate I’m holding onto you like it’s a mistake I know But I can’t stop my hands from letting go So just go already — rip it clean Don’t let it turn into what it’s been If you’re gonna leave, then leave like you mean Not like a dream I still believe ⸻ Outro Or I’ll do it first… just to feel less broken when you do.
