"The Ending You Deserve" lyrics

"The Ending You Deserve"

Oh, I'll write a story 'bout love and regret
That says all the things I wish I would've said
And gives us a chance to forget and be children again

And you'll be the damsel, the one in distress
Who gives me a chance, cause I'm trying my best
To move on with the things that I just never seem to accept

But, dragons circle your tower
While I'm lookin' up from down below
Oh, I wish I knew how to shoot them down
So, I'll lay down my shield and walk back down this road alone
Oh, how I wish I could go back and just begin again
Cause-

I've been falling on my knees
And tearing out the pages and pages of all that we were
A vacant reminder of lines that we blurred, My Love
Until I write the ending you deserve

Oh, I'll write a story that you'll wanna read
About all the times I was there when you needed me most
And I rushed to your side, to defend you again
And I'll be the hero, who fights for your hand
I'll race across oceans and fly over land
Just to hold you and tell you, "I'm sorry that I couldn't win"

But, dragons circle your tower
While I'm lookin' up from down below
Oh, I wish I knew how to shoot them down
So, I'll lay down my shield
And walk back down this road alone
Oh, how I wish I could go back and just begin again
Cause-

I've been falling on my knees
And tearing out the pages and pages of all that we were
A vacant reminder of lines that we blurred, my Love
Cause, I just can't ignore that all the ink has just begun to dry
And no matter how I try, I can never just reach you in time
So, I'll just erase and I'll rewrite the lines, my Love
Until I write the ending you deserve

Until I write the ending you deserve
