[Verse 1:]
Oh, we gave it our best go
When we made those promises
How could have we have known
You tried to take from me
The thing that sets me free
Oh, I know we both have grown
But you have to find your happiness
Out there on your own
I couldn't hold you up
Without emptying my cup
[Chorus:]
And we tried, you know we tried
But we couldn't get where we were going
And I cried, you know I cried
When I told you it was broken
But you lied I think you lied
When you said that things were golden
And I'm fine, I'm really fine
Now that the final word's been spoken
[Verse 2:]
You always had to have the final word
But for the first time in a long time
I think you finally heard
Your insecurities took a toll on me
And I know you see
[Chorus:]
And we tried, you know we tried
But we couldn't get where we were going
And I cried, you know I cried
When I told you it was broken
But you lied I think you lied
When you said that things were golden
And I'm fine, I'm really fine
Now that the final word's been spoken
[Verse 3:]
We told ourselves a story of what our lives could be
I forgive you, and i set you free
Now when I close my eyes
I can't imagine what my life looks like
And that's alright
It's alright
I'm alright
[Chorus:]
And we tried, you know we tried
But we couldn't get where we were going
And I cried, you know I cried
When I told you it was broken
But you lied I think you lied
When you said that things were golden
And I'm fine, I'm really fine
Now that the final word's been spoken
[Outro:]
And you lied I think you lied
When you said that things were golden
But I'm fine, I'm really fine
Now that the final word's been spoken
Oh, we gave it our best go
When we made those promises
How could have we have known
You tried to take from me
The thing that sets me free
Oh, I know we both have grown
But you have to find your happiness
Out there on your own
I couldn't hold you up
Without emptying my cup
[Chorus:]
And we tried, you know we tried
But we couldn't get where we were going
And I cried, you know I cried
When I told you it was broken
But you lied I think you lied
When you said that things were golden
And I'm fine, I'm really fine
Now that the final word's been spoken
[Verse 2:]
You always had to have the final word
But for the first time in a long time
I think you finally heard
Your insecurities took a toll on me
And I know you see

And we tried, you know we tried

And I cried, you know I cried
When I told you it was broken

[Outro:]
And you lied I think you lied
When you said that things were golden
But I'm fine, I'm really fine
Now that the final word's been spoken
