I heard your callin’, soon I’d fallen
I tumbled to the ground
Gave up myself without a sound
My life it shattered, it didn’t matter
‘Cause I loved you through and through
I was so ashamed of what I let you do
I fought all the reasons I knew it wasn’t right, every night
It’s understood we can’t go on
I can’t be your friend, it’s gone on too long
It’s understood that everything dies
We knew from the start, so it ain’t no surprise
All the words we said came to an end
It’s understood
I’d think about ya, lost in nostalgia
For a time that never was
And kept on going, just because
I thought I knew ya, was all illusion
I made up in my mind
Scared to death at what I’d find
You’re just a stranger I lived with every day, so far away
It’s understood we can’t go on
I can’t be your friend, it’s gone on too long
It’s understood that everything dies
We knew from the start, so it ain’t no surprise
All the words we said came to an end
It’s understood
No one wants to admit that the one they love is no good
Broke my heart so many times, more than any person should
Your love was so addictive, was in denial for so long
Who knew that love was such a lonely place to be
It’s understood we can’t go on
I can’t be your friend, it’s gone on too long
It’s understood that everything dies
We knew from the start, so it ain’t no surprise
All the words we said came to an end
It’s understood
