This is Not How it Ends Lyrics by Moving Boxes

The Things We Leave Behind

2024

I can smell the mold
It’s in the walls of this new apartment
That I left here
I brush my hands across another notch
That I’ve left here in this stand
My backs got a story to tell
There’s a narrative in my posture
It’s writing letters
And they’re telling me to get the hell out
They’re telling me to get out
And that I’ve wasted another month
This seasons littered with rent checks
Piled next to my thoughts
Dеad like the leavеs on the ground
I’m not gonna let
December drag me under again
I’m not gonna run away, run away
I need to breathe life before I decay
I’m watching the sunrise on another day
Spent in flickering white scale lights
Their burning down on me and
Casting my shadow to an inward facing window
I can barely breathe
With the clocks face glaring at me
An opponent across the ring
Every minute it’s shaking it’s hand
Beating me senseless
I’m wishing it was over while missing my bruises
How did we ever make a cyclistic hell
The knot of a lifeline?
Or am I just wasting mine?
I’m not gonna let
December drag me under again
I’m not gonna run away, run away
I need to breathe life before I decay
I’m not gonna let
December drag me under again
I’m not gonna run away, run away
I need to breathe life before I decay
You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love."
I’m not gonna let
December drag me under again
I’m not gonna run away, run away
I need to breathe life before I decay
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For once I will not be my reason for pain
For pain
