I've been writing a lot of songs lately
But you will never listen to them
Because the things I would have to say
Made me drown in my own silence

This is not a choice, darling
This is not a choice
My heart only falls asleep in the morning
And I've already lost the battle

I've been seeing a lot of things lately
You don't know how it aches
And I can never show you
But we can still be friends someday

Because this is not a choice, darling
This is not a choice
My heart only falls asleep in the morning
And I've already lost the battle

I know you're upset with me
I'm so sorry for a lot of things
But even tho I love you so
I can't be the friend you need

Maybe I just needed some help
And this is the worst part
Because I ran away, and well
This is where the devil starts

But this is not a choice, darling
This is not a choice
My heart only falls asleep in the morning
And I've already lost this battle
