Lyrics and translation

Original

I could be gone in a minute.

I might jump out of the window and dive in the street.

I only fight when I'm in it, but I don't have any fight left in me.

I never know when to quit it.

I'll tear it all to the ground and accept my defeat.

You won't decide when it's finished.

No, you don't get to take that from me.

I could run away if I want to.

And I'm not gonna stay, but I want you to know. I've been okay since I lost you.

You just made a mistake and I want you to go. Just give me a break, how much more can I take?

This heavy feeling's got me feeling we got carried away.

And I don't wanna carry the weight. Tell all your friends that I'm different.

Dress up the story with lies and I bet they'll agree.

Because you're always the victim.

No, I don't care how you describe me.

It's always your world we live in.

All your delusion and fantasy set in the scene.

And by the time you're forgiven, oh, no, you won't even recognize me.

I could run away if I want to.

And I'm not gonna stay, but I want you to know. I've been okay since I lost you.

You just made a mistake and I want you to go. Just give me a break, how much more can I take?

This heavy feeling's got me feeling we got carried away.

And I don't wanna carry the weight of you calling at four in the morning.

Losing your patience without any warning.

Changing the rules I'm expected to follow. I know it's tough, it's a hard pill to swallow.

You packed your shit and piled it on, but I won't hold it for you any longer.

I could run away if I want to.

I'm not gonna stay, but I want you to know. I've been okay since I lost you.

You just made a mistake and I want you to go.

Just give me a break, how much more can I take? This heavy feeling's got me feeling we got carried away.

How much more can I take? How much more can I take?

And I don't wanna carry the weight.
