In the End
Lyrics and Music by Aubrey Wood
Preoccupied I’d say
I’m caught up in the better days
So long to the tick tock in my brain
The countdown to the day
I’m singing out loud
Hey I’m on my feet
Without you babe
The remedy
To a pain so close to third degree
Of the heart
When it was never meant to be
Oh and why be so blue
If I never needed you
To live my life?
Don’t stop me ‘cause I’m doing so fine
See I made it out alive
I should have known
I should have known better
And I’ll thank you later for the favor
Don’t stop me ‘cause I’m doing so well
You might have put me through hell
When you said that you were leaving me
Yeah I was a wreck
But it was everything I needed
In the end.
I was sipping a coke out here
In the sun
Thinking how could I have ever
Thought my life was somehow
Done and dead and gone
I’m a liar if I said
I wasn’t wrong when I’m
Laughing to myself whenever he calls
Now I tend to let it ring
It used to hurt but now
I’m hitting delete on my message machine
Because why be so blue
If I never needed you
To live my life?
Don’t stop me ‘cause I’m doing so fine
See I made it out alive
I should have known
I should have known better
And I’ll thank you later for the favor
Don’t stop me ‘cause I’m doing so well
You might have put me through hell
When you said that you were leaving me
Yeah I was a wreck
But it was everything I needed
In the end.
My lover left my in a daze
Midday in a cinematic summer haze
But icy eyes were freezing mine
Kind of like this sense of time
I never knew it till I lived my life
I lived my life
And here you are again
Here you are tonight
Tonight
Don’t stop me ‘cause I’m doing so fine
See I made it out alive
I should have known
I should have known better
And I’ll thank you later for the favor
Don’t stop me ‘cause I’m doing so well
You might have put me through hell
When you said that you were leaving me
Yeah I was a wreck
But it was everything I needed
In the end.
