You're alone on that rock but not because I left you
You chose this
I swore I'd never leave but you chose this
You never wrote me back
You just turned your back on me time and time again
And now the tide's rolling in and the water is dark around your ankles
The moon will never light your face again
She won't save you
I don't crave you
Not anymore
You've been left to drown
And that ticking you hear isn't my heart
It's time leaving you bit by bit - the way you left me

And now the water is dark around your waist
And I don't care anymore
And that ticking you hear isn't me scolding you
Wishing I was holding you
It's me walking away - not looking back
You chose this
I swore I'd never leave but you chose this

And now the water is dark around your neck
Almost above you
I don't love you
Not anymore
You've been left to drown
And that ticking you hear is the final lesson
