The Bitter End

We both know it's happening
But we're frightened of the truth
We both know letting go
Is the hardest thing to do
We could hang on to the past
Or we could set each other free
There's nothing but wounded pride and tears
At the dark end of the street

Let's not go there
Let's remember
Something good about the way we were
We need some mercy
From all this hurting
Don't you think that's what a broken heart deserves
There's a place I don't want to get to
I don't want to go to the bitter end
With you

We both know the answer
We've avoided it so long
We're not meant to be together
We're just fools to linger on
When only cause each other pain
And the fight is all we know
Dissapointment's surely waiting
Down that old familiar road

Let's not go there
Let's remember
Something good about the way we were
We need some mercy
From all this hurting
Don't you think that's what a broken heart deserves
There's a place I don't want to get to
I don't want to go to the bitter end
With you

Let's not go there
Let's remember
Something good about the way we were
We need some mercy
From all this hurting
Don't you think that's what a broken heart deserves
There's a place I don't want to get to
I don't want to go to the bitter end
With you

Let's be kind while we have the chance to
I don't want to go to the bitter end
With you

We both know what's happening
But we're frightened of the truth
