[Verse 1]
Your boots by the door
Still marked with red clay
Half a tank in the truck
And a whole lot to say
The porch swing creaks
Like it knows what I did
I watched you pack quiet
Then I swallowed it
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the screen door slams
And the whole house shakes
I hear my own heart
For the first time break
If we’re really done
Say it plain, say it loud
'Cause I can’t chase you
With my head in the clouds
[Chorus]
This is the end of us
(End of us)
No turning back in the dust
(Back in the dust)
We were fire, we were trust
Now it’s gone in a rush
This is the end of us
(End of us)
[Verse 2]
Your coffee mug cold
By the sink in the dawn
That old gold ring
Feels too heavy now gone
I drove past the mill
Where we used to laugh
Every mile felt shorter
Every memory hit back
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the screen door slams
And the whole house shakes
I hear my own heart
For the first time break
If we’re really done
Say it plain, say it loud
'Cause I can’t chase you
With my head in the clouds
[Chorus]
This is the end of us
(End of us)
No turning back in the dust
(Back in the dust)
We were fire, we were trust
Now it’s gone in a rush
This is the end of us
(End of us)
[Bridge]
I don’t hate you
I just miss who we were
The way your hand fit mine
The way forever felt sure
But the summer’s burned out
And the maple leaves fall
I can stand in the ashes
I can stand through it all
[Final Chorus]
This is the end of us
(End of us)
No turning back in the dust
(Back in the dust)
We were fire, we were trust
Now it’s gone in a rush
This is the end of us
(End of us)
This is the end of us
(End of us)
