lyrics

This is me, and this is you

I thought that maybe you would understand

That this is me, and this is her

She's the reason why I can't be

Around to hold your hand

Now this is me, telling you

That I think it's time for me to go

Cuz that was me, and that was you

We had our time in the sun

Now we're waiting for the snow

To cover me, and bury you

To smother all we thought would last

Forever, but now it's gone

And this is me, saving you

From a life you'd waste searching for

The man you used to know

And I, I'm standing on her doorstep in the rain

And I, I can't stay away, like a moth to the flame

And I, have an open door to happiness and someone who might stay

But I choose the rain

This is me, fucking up

Every time I try to make things right

And this is her, moving on

Too tired to raise her fists

Or her voice for one last fight

Now this is me, filling up

One more glass to wash away

The thoughts of missing love

And this is me, giving up

On one more letter, when it’s clear

That you’ve finally had enough

And I, now I’m standing all alone in the rain

And I, I couldn’t stay away, like a moth to the flame

And I, had an open door to happiness and someone who might’ve stayed

But I chose the rain

This is love, or is this hate

I think it’s time that I should know
