Ultimately I don't understand a thing
I try to do the best I can
I know you try to do the same
We're just so bound to make mistakes
You could call it a disposition
I apologize for all your tears
I wish I could be different
But I'm still growing up
Into the one, you can call your love
I don't know if I'll ever be enough
I'm throwing in my chips
I guess I tend to push my luck
And ultimately I believe we'll be okay
It's so cliché to say these things, but repetition is a key
I think I'm better when I'm with you
But I worry when you're gone
I think I need to learn to love myself
I must learn to be strong
So, for now, we'll say goodbye
Although it pains me in my heart
Your words they come to me in memories
They sing to me like songs
It won't be long until I'm here
Soon I'll make my arrival
Under shady trees
A quiet street
The roads that I have travelled
Ultimately it's a beautiful thing
Like flowers blooming in a lonely field
The petals drift through crossing winds
That find their way to river streams
That scent the water beautifully, it takes me back to you
It takes me back to you
And ultimately I could not prevent our end
I hope to God that we stay friends
And if we don't, let's make amends
Because I need you in my life
You're the one thing I survive for
And I'll never be alright unless you are the light I strive for
And ultimately I know that I can't complain
I know that you are doing great
Perhaps I was your one mistake
It's funny how we got so far
Considering my wishes in the absence of a shooting star
A shooting star
And as we say goodbye then I decide
To be the one that you've been dreaming of
Yeah, the one that your diary's been speaking of
Yeah, I'm cashing out, I'm redeeming love
And as tonight we change our life
It is your right to seize the light you've been teaching of
Yeah, the same light that I've been leeching off
I've been passing out, while you're preaching trust
Hence, as I walked out of your house
With that bouquet of flowers that you just bought for my mom
I started counting the hours until you would wise up
And, turn all your focus on coming home
And, I've been contemplating all of the women
That ever have blessed my life with their grace
And I have come to conclusion
That despite their beauty they have nothing on your angelic face
And ultimately I know that you're made of stars
You glow right through the concrete slabs
And all the rows of iron bars
You need a better life than this
It's okay, girl, just leave me
I'll be here for you forever, you just call me if you need me
