Weekend Plans

I was tracing maps of where we'd go in ten years time Building up a castle out of every single line I set the table for a life, a permanent design While you were just checking if the stars would all align For a Saturday night, maybe Sunday afternoon I was singing symphonies, you hummed a different tune Every brick I laid was heavy, made of solid gold You were building sandcastles, waiting for the cold To wash it all away before the sun begins to set But I was all-in, placing every single bet I gave you forever, you gave me next week I was the mountain, you were the peak That crumbles in the rain when the weather gets rough I gave you my soul, but it wasn't enough You played the part of a lover so well But you were just ringing a temporary bell I was building a home, you were looking for a room A beautiful garden that forgot how to bloom I saved a seat for you at every holiday I cleared the wreckage just to make a better way But your calendar is empty after Monday night You keep your bags packed, ready for a flight If things get too heavy, if the air gets too thick You're a master of the exit, a disappearing trick I was investing my heart while you spent your change Isn't it funny? Isn't it strange? How I saw a future in the palm of your hand But you only saw a footprint in the shifting sand Situationship effort for relationship dreams I’m sewing up the soul you ripped at the seams You were a visitor, I was the host Giving my everything to a beautiful ghost No more waiting for a text that never arrives I'm reclaiming the pieces of our fractured lives I gave you forever, you gave me next week I was the mountain, you were the peak That crumbles in the rain when the weather gets rough I gave you my soul, but it wasn't enough You played the part of a lover so well But you were just ringing a temporary bell I was building a home, you were looking for a room A beautiful garden that forgot how to bloom Next weekend is yours, but forever is mine I'm crossing the border, I'm drawing the line No more building for two on a foundation of one I'm walking away now, I'm finally done
