I'll Settle

from PROLOGUE by Alexa Lux

/

lyrics

You make it so hard to move on from you
The memory forms a scar
Try to distract myself with someone new
But seeing you just opens up the wounds
And I wonder how you can do it
Pretending we both don't know the truth
Why did I ever chase after you?
I just can't stand the thought
Of being without you

So I'll settle
Settle for just being friends
It's better than not having you at all
So I'll settle
Settle for letting you get away
If it means that I get to keep any piece of you
Any piece of you at all

[Instrumental Solo]

I look at that painting every single day
I wonder how the hell it turned out this way
How quickly things went from bad to worse
I never wanted anyone to get hurt
I should have noticed you were guarded
I should have known you'd leave me broken hearted
I guess I should have built my walls up too
'Cause falling for you just left me fractured and bruised

[Chorus]

I guess this is the danger
Of letting someone in
I know now not to give too much
I won't make that mistake again
It's a risk to open up your heart
To someone who's a friend
But you know you mean the world to me
This just can't be the end

[Chorus]
