The End Of Something Lyrics

This is how it ends, it's how it ended

This is how it ends, it's how it ended

Solemn afternoon with my suitcase in the rain

Deleting all our pictures like it takes away the pain

We gave ultimatums but nothing ever changed

What we had was something but was nothing all the same

This is how it ends, it's how it ended

This is how it ends, it's how it ended

Late home in the evening, and then straight away I knew

I knew it in the silence that there was no trace of you

The patch behind your painting was a shadow on my wall

A souvenir of something that meant nothing after all

I count all my reasons but my reasons feel so cold

No comfort in these reasons now my story's getting old

I'd sacrifice my future if it wasn't at my door

I'm at the end of something now there's nothing any more

It hurts to read your message cos then I know I'm right

The way that you accept it all, the way you show no fight

They say that it's the little things that show you what is true

But little things that hurt me seem to make no sense to you

I went out at the weekend so I didn't have to think

I knew it was a cliché and I know that I can't drink

I'm fed up with this sympathy from everybody else

Maybe it was nothing but there's something that I felt

You had to send your father round to pick up all your books

I tried to look him in the eye, I tried to make him shake my hand

I tried to give you space, you see, this isn't what I choose

But maybe if there's nothing left, there's nothing left to lose.
