I know you meant well and it's for the best
There's no way in hell I won't put this to rest
Despite your intentions you showed me
Darling you don't even know me oh
Working and singing my heart out
And it's ripped me completely to shreds
There's nothing I won't set on fire now
If it gets you back out of my head
I knew that it wouldn't be easy
But my god this is so damn hard
My will to live will surpass the feelings
That I have to reopen these scars
Let's stay cities apart
Let's stay cities apart
Let's stay cities apart
10 out of 10 therapists agree
That you were just using me
You say your intentions were good
I don't think that I misunderstood
There's no need to come back now
Or know where I'm at
No it could never be easy as that
When is it ever you think you're so clever
Now this no contact means I'm gone forever
I knew that it wouldn't be easy
But my god this is so damn hard
If singing this song stops the bleeding
Then I'll sing til it rips out my heart
Let's stay cities apart
Let's stay cities apart
Let's stay cities apart
I know you meant well and it's for the best
I think that it's time that we put this to bed
You say your intentions were fair
But you only pretended to care
So I'm cutting off contact today
And I'm pushing you further away
I knew that it wouldn't be easy but my god this is so damn hard
My will to live will surpass the feelings
That I have to reopen these scars
Let's stay cities apart
Let's stay cities apart
Let's stay cities apart
