Let Me Down Easy

I can feel us changing
You don't wait up for my key to turn the lock
And it's all around me
I am messing up and I can't seem to stop
And I want an answer
I have spent the best of all my years with you
If you think it's over
Tell it to me straight, cause I deserve the truth
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
Don't string me along
Tell me you're sorry
Say it's you and not me
That's all I want
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
I came in to save us
And it turned out there was nothing left to fix
And I've been no angel
But I never thought I'd see us come to this
I'm not pointing fingers
Neither one of us should have to take the blame
If you say it's over
That's a minute less my heart will beat your name
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
Don't string me along
Tell me you're sorry
Say it's you and not me
That's all I want
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
It seems like a thousand years
I'm tracing back with you
And everybody's got something to say
But when it's said and done
Well this is what it comes down to
Just the two of us and all of our mistakes
Well it's been a long time since you waited for my key to turn the lock
No turning back now, no use trying to make something where there's not
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
Don't string me along
Tell me you're sorry
Say it's you and not me
That's all I want
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
(I never wanted to believe
You couldn't stand to be with me
I never thought that you would care
The thoughts you had, we never shared
And when you left an open door
I checked out other spots to go)
What are we doing all this for?
(You couldn't stand to be with me)
I can't be something that I'm not
(I never thought that you would care)
I won't go and you won't stay
(I checked out other spots to go)
No, there's nothing left to say
