Halfway Lyrics

I thought our love meant that I was closer

To the life that I truly wanted

Now that it's really finally over

I can tell it was holding me hostage

I moved back to Brooklyn to find someone older

Someone who won't leave me so exhausted

I moved back to find someone else I could leave with

'Cause I want the house and the yard you were teasing

And you let me down

But that's okay 'cause we were gonna drown

And I'll pack my things

'Cause this ain't how it always has to be

A few weeks have passed I can see that you're hurting

Even if it's not the same kind of burning

I needed to know that it wasn't all rainbows

This meeting is useful, even though it's painful

I wish you would let it all out like you used to

I wish you would cry because tears can be useful

You hid under a blanket for more than that just that night

It was always flight, you had no fight

You hid from your feelings, while I dimmed the lights

And you let me down

It wasn't the other way around

It's not like it was black and white

It might never satisfy

All of my questions

And all that left was there

And I know you said the final words

It'll be your heart that hurts one day

'Cause I walked away

I was playing pretend

I was fucking upset

And I combed it all over when talking with friends

I bought tickets and flights

To keep the fantasy alive

And in the end you were only along for the ride

And you let me down

But that's ok 'cause we were gonna drown

And I packed my things

For two hours I forgot to breathe

It's not like it was black and white

It might never satisfy

All of my questions

And all that left was there

And I know you said the final words

But it'll be your heart that hurts

One day, 'cause I walked away

You wouldn't meet me halfway

You wouldn't meet me halfway

You wouldn't meet me halfway
