Should've known by the way you'd sigh real slow

Like the truth was something you wouldn't know

I learned how to nod, learned how to agree

Learned how to doubt every instinct in me

I called it love, called it patience too

Called it a mess, "something we'd get through"

Painted the cracks like they weren't that bad

Yeah, I stayed quiet when I should've packed

Pre-Chorus

I carried us both, I called it my part

Mistook losing myself for having a heart

But standing here with nothing to lose

I see the difference between love and you

Chorus

This ain't the end of the world, it's the end of an error

I read the signs wrong, now I read 'em better

I'm not heartbroken, I'm finally clear

Turns out the only thing wrong was keeping you here

I didn't lose forever, I just let you go

I fixed what was broken, and baby, it shows

This ain't regret, it's a little relief

Just the end of an error and the start of me

Verse 2

Your name don't sting when it lights my phone

'Cause I don't wonder who you're calling home

I cleaned the house, I cleared my head

Funny how quiet feels like strength instead

I stopped rewriting what you meant to say

Stopped making excuses for your stupid ways

Turns out peace don't ask you to pretend

It just lets you breathe again

Pre-Chorus 2

I took the blame for things you wouldn't own

Held us together all on my own

But loving you shouldn't feel like war

And I'm not signing up for that anymore

Chorus

This ain't the end of the world, it's the end of an error

I read the signs wrong, now I read 'em better

I'm not heartbroken, I'm finally clear

Turns out the only thing wrong was keeping you here

I didn't lose forever, I just let you go

I fixed what was broken, and baby, it shows

This ain't regret, it's a little relief

Just the end of an error and the start of me

Bridge

I won't miss the nights I felt alone with you

Or the way I shrank just to make room

If walking away makes me the bad guy

Then I'll wear it proud and sleep just fine

I don't need closure wrapped up in a lie

I don't need reasons, I've made up my mind

Final Chorus

This ain't the end of the world, it's the end of an error

I read the signs wrong, now I read 'em better

I'm not heartbroken, I'm finally free

Turns out the best thing was choosing me

I didn't lose forever, I just let you go

I fixed what was broken, and baby, it shows

This ain't goodbye, it's a victory

Just the end of an error and the start of me

Yeah, I learned my lesson

And I'm not looking back

Just the end of an error

And I'm good with that
