"How This Ends" lyrics

You said, "Who are we fooling?"
I guess that you gave up
On all that I am and all that I'm not
'Cause I'm fucking useless
And full of excuses
I guess that you cut free
From all that we are and will never be

Now the flowers are dead
Like the hearts in our chest
And I'm hanging my head
'Cause I'm trying to forget
How we bled and we bled and we bled and we bled

So this is where we ended up
All of those years that I wasted for love
And here it is forevermore
The house is on fire, and I can't find the door
If I had the heart to start it again
I'd stamp out the sparks in my own self-defence
Say you ain't gonna like how this ends

You know if we went back
To fix what we once had
There'd still be no chance
For you and me 'cause inevitably

All the flowers would die
And the tears from your eyes
Would come as no surprise
As I tried to forget
How we bled, and we bled, and we bled, and we bled!

So this is where we ended up
All of those years that I wasted for love
And here it is forevermore
The house is on fire, and I can't find the door
If I had the heart to start it again
I'd stamp out the sparks in my own self-defence
No you ain't gonna like how this ends

Broken with no way to mend
No you ain't gonna like how this ends
I'm stuck here just trying to forget
How we bled, and we bled, and we bled, and we bled!

So this is where we ended up
All of those years that I wasted for love
And here it is forevermore
The house is on fire, and I can't find the door
If I had the heart to start it again
I'd stamp out the sparks in my own self-defence
Say you ain't gonna like
How this ends
