Beginning With Release
Second chances only create
even more seconds to wait.
Everyone starts over, turns a new leaf,
but youÂ’re weak, and even the weight
proves much too heavy for a pest like yourself,
especially when youÂ’re already burdened
with a chip on your shoulder
that cuts as deep as her treachery

[Chorus]
And this release,
itÂ’s not going to be the end for me.
Our tug of war taught me
resilience and a few more things
I was only armed for battle, you see,
But I didnÂ’t lose because IÂ’m not lost
And you have to be strong to keep holding on,
but it takes strength of mind, to know when to release.

YouÂ’ve been saving all your pennies just to flip the coin.
Well, headÂ’s up, high roller,
all youÂ’re going to see is tails as you watch me leave.
I never was your Lady Luck,
and IÂ’m fucking done being your second best.
No need to worry about me;
IÂ’ll bounce back from this with ease
What a shame you wonÂ’t be so lucky
Cause youÂ’re not going up, and youÂ’re not going downÂ…
YouÂ’ll just waver back and forth,
still impossible to please.
Cause youÂ’re not going up, and youÂ’re sure as fuck not going downÂ…
YouÂ’ll just waver back and forth,
still impossible to please.

[Chorus]
And this release,
itÂ’s not going to be the end for me.
Our tug of war taught me
resilience and a few more things.
I was only armed for battle, you see,
But I didnÂ’t lose because IÂ’m not lost
And you have to be strong to keep holding on,
but it takes strength of mind, to know when to release.


[2x]
You say, but weÂ’ve only just begun.
And I say, our beginning is done.
You never should have left,
No, you never should have come.
