If I keep writing,
I'll run out of ink and energy,
To keep trying to say these things to you.
So let me stop at ellipses not read quite yet,
And ask you a question,
Did you mean all those things you said?

If you can never trust me,
Then trust me,
I'll never trust myself.
It can't be easy when I tell you,
That I'll be just fine alone.
If you can never trust me,
Then trust me,
I'll be just fine.

Spent part of the night,
And all of the morning,
Questioning how you really feel...
I still feel the same,
But I can't take you,
And I'll follow through with time,
And let it heal today and yesterday,
Oh, how I wish I was still dreaming,
And realizing that what I did was wrong,
But that I could fix a bridge broken in between...
But I'm terrified of this now.

If I keep writing,
I'll run out of ink and energy,
To keep trying to say these things to you.
So let me stop at ellipses not read quite yet,
And ask you a question,
Did you mean all those things you said?

It can't be easy when I tell you,
That I'll be just fine.
It feels so easy.
I suppose I still dream of better days,
Just so I could make you smile, maybe.

If I keep writing,
I'll run out of ink and energy,
To keep trying to say these things to you.
So let me stop at ellipses not read quite yet,
And ask you a question,
Did you mean all those things you said?
It is what it is.

"So let me stop at ellipses not read quite yet"...

I love this line, the sounds, the rigidity of the syllables, the connotations... beautiful.
