This Will be the End of Us

Take my hand we'll make it this time
We'll find our way home and keep this alive at heart 

Let me tell you something new 
It's something that you never thought
Could have ever been so close
It's not that far when I'm around
I think about it every time
I touch your skin or hear your heart
But I know you'll never notice
If I keep it all inside

Why do you refuse to take my hand? 
You brave the world on your own 
Why do you refuse to take my hand? 
You brave the world on your own 

You've got me acting such a fool for you.
Sometimes I loose myself,
When I’m with you I loose myself

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

What makes you think that I'd find, 
Find it so hard to speak the truth
Clearly we’re not on the same page as we used to be

We're scratching at the surface
If I let you in I'll bring you down 
Suspicions make me nervous 
I cover it up when you're around
We'll talk about the whether 
Quote some quotes to make time pass
Or pull down the systems
The lies we told the walls we have
We can separate our shallow hearts
We can say who we really are

Why can’t you just accept me for the person I really am? 
I have changed my entire life to suit your highest expectations

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

This will be the end of us
This will be the end 
This will be the end of us
