Slow Collapse Lyrics by Bonfires

The Way This Ends

2015

[Verse 1]
Growing up I used to tell myself that everything I did was for a reason
Then you blew in on a southern breeze and changed every ambition

[Chorus]
I never knew how much you changed me
Until the day I walked away
I never knew that everything I would say would one day become irrelevant
So tell me again, what you said
About the way you changed and the way this ends
I just want to know how it feels to be the one who's life isn't collapsing

[Verse 2]
I never wanted it to be this way
But one day soon there will a come a day where you say
"You're my biggest regret and I'll never forget how you threw my life away"

[Chorus]
I never knew how much you changed me
Until the day I walked away
I never knew that everything I would say would one day become irrelevant
So tell me again, what you said
About the way you changed and the way this ends
I just want to know how it feels to be the one who's life isn't collapsing

[Bridge]
I may have lost my way, and I refuse to change
But you were the one who let me stay that way
I chose to walk away when you know I could have stayed
But I'd rather let my life unfold

[Chorus]
I never knew how much you changed me
Until the day I walked away
I never knew that everything I would say would one day become irrelevant
So tell me again, what you said
About the way you changed and the way this ends
I just want to know how it feels to be the one who's life isn't collapsing

[Outro]
Are you collapsing?
'Cause I'm collapsing
