The choice

The last time I write to you, and this time it's for real, I promise
With every attempt, every goodbye, another chance I dare to take
I pretend it doesn't hurt, I pretend I forget
Sometimes it was meant to end, but I insist on a new start

And once again, I let it slide
Ignoring reason, deceiving myself, giving it all away

I was always here for you
Always together until the end
I never imagined it wasn't like that for you
And today I'm standing here, watching it all fade
After so many verses, handing you my last letter

The last time I write to you, I'm gonna promise
Everything ended, I just didn't want to see
In the fire of stubborness, someone's always trying
To keep a flame alive, maybe because they're loving
But the end always comes, sometimes with a warning, sometimes not
No fire, no flame, stubborn or not
But I know a rhyme is never born in vain
To say I love you, to say never again
Or just to set it free, for you it's all the same

I was always here for you
Always together until the end
I never imagined it wasn't like that for you
And today I'm standing here, watching it all fade
After so many verses, handing you my last letter

Sometimes I do the math of how much I owe
To you who did so much, and to myself as well
Always ignoring the end I foresee, I look back and I don't see
That at the end of this story, through the ups and downs and rounds
I'm the one who's revolting, suffering and crying

And in the end, you just throw it away
But I won't go on, I'm tired of writing, I don't even know if you'll read
My last letter

I was always here for you
Always together until the end
I never imagined it wasn't like that for you
And today I'm standing here, watching it all fade
After so many verses, handing you my last letter
