Empty Handed

No more romantic plan

I've put up and done my best

Don't want to lead the blind to scenic landscapes on my chest

I'm leaving you here to rest

No i don't want to pull your weight forever

No more pretending that we'll be together

I'm empty handed when i carried you so long

Don't get in

I'm saying i told you so

I'm saying i should have known

I've got enough weight to pull without your fingers on my plate

I'm so glad i let you go

No i don't want to pull your weight forever

No more pretending that we'll be together

I'm empty handed when i carried you so long

Don't get in

Hating and waiting, frustrating, debating

And feeding and taking and building and breaking

Needing and needing till life was receding

And sinking in puddles of tears from you

Hating and waiting, debating

And feeding and taking

And building and breaking

Completing

And needing and needing

And needing and needing

I'm leaving

There's nothing that you can do.

(you won't have time to pretend that it never was)

No i don't want to pull your weight

No more pretending that we'll be together

I carried you
