I try and say the words
But every single time I fail
Like a ship trapped in a bottle
But I know my ship has sailed
I try and try to fight a war
That you've already won
But there's a noose
Squeezing my tongue
So tell me what's the view like
When you're feelin' so far down
I thought we'd stick it out
But I'm used to you leavin' now
You probably think I'm broken
I honestly don't feel a thing
You're always there
Under my skin
This time's the last time
I stand alone
I fell enough times
When you're not home
The pain I've grew accustomed to
Didn't mean a thing to you
Say goodbye to my friends
I did it all for you
I try to say the words
But every single time I fail
Like a ship trapped in a bottle
But I know my ship has sailed (know my ship has sailed)
I try and try to fight a war
That you've already won
But there's a noose
Squeezing my tongue
This time's the last time
I stand alone
I fell enough times
When you're not home
The pain I've grew accustomed to
Didn't mean a thing to you
Say goodbye to my friends
I did it all for you
I did it all for you, oh
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
And I hope we'll make it through
'Cause I did it all for you
But every single time I fail
Like a ship trapped in a bottle
But I know my ship has sailed
I try and try to fight a war
That you've already won
But there's a noose
Squeezing my tongue
So tell me what's the view like
When you're feelin' so far down
I thought we'd stick it out
But I'm used to you leavin' now
You probably think I'm broken
I honestly don't feel a thing
You're always there
Under my skin
This time's the last time
I stand alone
I fell enough times
When you're not home
The pain I've grew accustomed to
Didn't mean a thing to you
Say goodbye to my friends
I did it all for you
I try to say the words
But every single time I fail
Like a ship trapped in a bottle
But I know my ship has sailed (know my ship has sailed)
I try and try to fight a war
That you've already won
But there's a noose
Squeezing my tongue
This time's the last time
I stand alone
I fell enough times
When you're not home
The pain I've grew accustomed to
Didn't mean a thing to you
Say goodbye to my friends
I did it all for you
I did it all for you, oh
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
And I hope we'll make it through
'Cause I did it all for you

I think this is about separating yourself from negative forces/ people in your life as difficult as it may be, it\'s about doing what\'s best for yourself in the end.
