Cutting Corners To Avoid The Unavoidable

I took the quick way out
Stranded, it was the best idea at the time
I see I missed a step or two and I’m on my way down
You were supposed to be the one that would comfort me

Instead you’ve abandoned me
You were supposed to be the one
That would comfort me and now you’re dead to me
Now its becoming hard to see
Were you ever there at all?
Now its becoming hard to see
Were you there to watch me fall?

A quick look was all I needed to navigate
Through the dark but now I’m stuck
I’m left behind
What a mess this turned out to be
It used to be that you were the beginning
And end to me now I’m beginning to see where the end will be

Now its becoming clear to me you were never there at all
Now its becoming clear to me you weren’t there to watch me fall
You weren’t supposed to be the one to abandon me
I walk alone in the dark
I’m convinced the only hell that exists is in ourselves
