For Real Lyrics by Evan Knapp

Color Theory

2022

She said have a nice life
And showed herself to the door
And I don't normally cry
But when it rains it pours
It’s finally done
I'm just glad that she took the lead
It would have dragged on for months
Had it been left up to me

And I'm not sure how to feel ‘cause of course I’m sad
But there's a certain relief I'm ashamed to have
But what hurts the most is the simple fact
That she thinks I'm coming back

But I'm gone for real this time
Made up my mind
I hate to leave, babe, but the choice ain't mine
You made this bed so please sleep tight
And consider this my final goodbye
‘Cause I'm gone for real this time
A line that's fine
I might be the reason that your heart’s heavy tonight
But you’ve broken mine over two years time
So consider this my final goodbye
Because I'm gone
For real
For real
For real
For real
For real
Yeah I’m gone
For real
For real
For real

Forty minutes pass
She asked I give back
Her dad's keyboard that fast
So that's where your head's at
After all we had
I take everything she ever gave
And put it into a bag
If that’s the game she wants to play

And topped it off with a spray of cologne
Because tonight I deserve to stoop this low
And when we met up again, she said come home
But I won't

‘Cause I'm gone for real this time
Made up my mind
I hate to leave, babe, but the choice ain't mine
You made this bed so please sleep tight
And consider this my final goodbye
‘Cause I'm gone for real this time
A line that's fine
I might be the reason that your heart's heavy tonight
But you've broken mine over two years time
So consider this my final goodbye
Because I'm gone
For real
For real
For real
For real
For real
Yeah I'm gone
For real
For real
For real

She sent me a movie
She made for our two-year last month
But never showed it to me
Until my mind was made up
It flashed before my eyes
A relationship that had run its course
And I don't normally cry
But when it rains it pours
