a burden. by senseless optimism

All your promises
Are 5 dollar words
They burn holes through my purse
Hard to unearth
But it’s time
I start to realize

That I’ve been trying to hold ya
But there’s no reason to hold on now
It’s hard to start over
But loving you is a burden

You act like an iceberg lately
Leave me on delivered, waitin for hours
Never thought this is how you’d be now
Remember when our love was forever

But I can’t keep trying to save us
You leave me yet ask for favors
I can see a world where I'm moving on
And not feeling broken

All your promises
Are 5 dollar words
They burn holes through my purse
Hard to unearth
But it’s time
I start to realize

That I’ve been trying to hold ya
But there’s no reason to hold on now
It’s hard to start over
But loving you is a burden

I’ll tell you how I feel
And it’s foolish
Waiting for you to change
And not do it
Open up for once
Just to prove it
Now you fade away

And I can’t keep trying to save us
You leave me yet ask for favors
I can see a world where I'm moving on
And not feeling broken

All your promises
Are 5 dollar words
They burn holes through my purse
Hard to unearth
But it’s time
I start to realize

That I’ve been trying to hold ya
But there’s no reason to hold on now
It’s hard to start over
But loving you is a burden

I’ve been trying to hold ya
But there’s no reason to hold on now
It’s hard to start over
But loving you is a burden
