there is something you need to know.

i lied


when you asked me if i was leaving you for someone else and i said no

i'm sorry, it wasn't the truth


'cause i did


i began to love someone else

and as it happened, i fell out of love with you


day by day, bone by bone


— slowly
'cause i wasn't sure at first

like weather in this city
and how it always tricks us

you think birds ever get confused? —


and then one day i knew


i just loved her more

she deserved me more, too

she would be here for me in more ways than you ever had or wanted to


and you see, i was giving her no fighting chance before


— how could I, when my heart was so so yours? —


but i couldn't live another day ignoring someone who needed more

who was giving me so much fucking more



thing is darling

— and i know by now you've got it all wrong —


that person was me


all along.
