The Ever After

I'm going up to face our ever after And come to terms with what's been on your mind I'm going through a pile of missing answers That neither of us ever meant to find Cause this is how you break a heart You start by breaking in And leaving everything in place And leaving everything And this is how you shatter it You resonate within In that suspended harmony That would have made it sing I'm going up to find the missing laughter That always told me somehow we'd be fine I'm going up to face our ever after And face that yours might no longer be mine And this is how you break a heart You start by breaking in And leaving everything in place Just leaving everything But this is how you fix the heart You go where hope is thin You prove that something left to lose Means something left to win I'm going up to face our ever after To show you how we both might make it through I'm owning an unqualified disaster To prove that I'm not blaming it on you Cause this is how you break a heart You start by breaking in And leaving everything in place Just leaving everything It's also how you fix the heart You slip under the skin So show me where things fell apart And that's where I'll begin Cause this is how you break a heart You start by breaking in And leaving everything in place Just leaving everything But this is how you tend to it You mend it from within So take me to our bitter end And that's where we'll begin I'm going up to face what you've been after To own up to what's been wrong all this time I'm going up to face our ever after
