[Female Vocalist][Intimate]
I had to take him to court,
The , Judge said!, We, Had to say
Goodbye-
Like we didn’t have Roses,
Like we didn’t have, good memories
Oh what a mess we’ve made,
Ending up like this,
I’m so sorry,
For my,
Exit plan-
Oh what a mess we’ve made,
Ending up like this,
I’m so sorry,
O yea I’m so sorry
For my,
Exit plan-
I could’ve shown you mercy,
I’m so sorry, but I knew if I didn’t-
You would’ve still given me roses,
When I wasn’t happy, with the man I once loved
Oh what a mess we’ve made,
Ending up like this,
I’m so sorry,
For my,
Exit plan-
Oh what a mess we’ve made,
Ending up like this,
I’m so sorry,
O yea I’m so sorry
For my,
Exit plan-
[BRIDGE — stripped down, intimate]
Maybe love was never meant
To be the thing that made us stay,
Maybe mercy sometimes means
Knowing when to walk away.
And I still see your face
In the places we once knew,
And God knows I still feel
A little tenderness for you.
But I couldn't keep pretending
That the woman in me was alright,
So I chose the kind of leaving
That would hurt us both tonight.
[PAUSE]
If I could've found another way,
Maybe I would've stayed...
But I knew
If I stayed—
I'd disappear.
[VOCAL LIFT]
And I don't want you to hate me...
I just needed to be free.
So if the roses still remember us,
Let them bloom—
Without me.
[Outro Soft]
For my-
Exit plan-
Oh I’m so sorry,
For my-
Exit plan-
Oh I’m so sorry-
