Say We Did It (The Comfort Out of the Blue)
When my truth hit hard
Shattering the foundations of the deepest lie
A journey for one to face solo
Anybody else would've looked the other way
But you held on tighter
Helped make the situation feel a little lighter
Even before that, I already knew
I had found a one of a kind when I met you
Try to keep that in mind
As the trickiest part still needed to come out
I could seek the right moment
But I'm inclined to think that this concept is a myth of time
Realizations will get tough
And the world isn't fair enough to let you catch your breathI think I picked up a bad habit
You made me forget how to be alone
But there's no escape, no other way around it
This time I'll have to do it on my ownYou deserve better than the things I could've faked
And I'd never let us do anything just to say we did
As I hold back tears on the way home
Thinking of what I'm about to do
I'm hit by relief out of the blue
It's the comfort I'll find in never lying again to youMy mistakes are clear now
Mostly silent grudges that I regret not talking out
My attitude wasn't the best
I admit to overthinking when I should've let it rest
I'm quite the challenge
Always figuring out that I don't know myself yet
You're part of my path
And I'll keep trying to
But I won't be able to express how grateful I amYou deserve better than the things I could've faked
And I'd never let us do anything just to say we did
As I hold back tears on the way home
Thinking of what I'm about to do
I'm hit by relief out of the blue
It's the comfort I'll find in never lying again to youI'll keep playing the songs we shared
Going down the ways we went
And I'll be remembering your tenderness
The waiting, the patience
The honesty, the conversations
And the very moment that I'll replay
The embrace that preceded it, so tight it hurt
But not as much as knowing I'd let you slip awayYou deserve better than the things I could've faked
And I'd never let us do anything just to say we did
As I hold back tears on the way home
Thinking of what I'm about to do
I'm hit by relief out of the blue
It's the comfort I'll find in never lying again to youRemember what I told you
What I treasure the most
Is that you're my best friend
Remember what I wrote
Whatever I know, I'll share with you
Whatever you can teach me
I'll do my best to learn
And whatever we don't know
We'll figure out together
