Lyrics Rationale – Choice

I know that it didn’t occur in the best way
I was a mess but you handled it well
All things considered I’m okay
You did your best though I know you could tell

I’m scared
So scared of the ways you
Compare to the one I would like
To be part of my life

But you’re not gonna be that though
Really, no
You don’t wanna be that no
Clearly, no

And that’s your choice
We all get
We all get that choice
You’ll forget
You’ll forget my voice
We all get
We all get that choice
You’ll forget

And it will be like we never happened
And it will be like we never happened

And that’s your choice
Were you the loud kid
Or were you the shy kid
Did your mama like kids
Did your daddy hide shit
And I wanted to get ‘neath your skin so bad I thought I must be crazy
I’m always in control but it’s the saddest thing ’cause you’ll replace me

No matter what I do

You’re not gonna be that though
Really, no
You don’t wanna be that no
Clearly, no

And that’s your choice
We all get
We all get that choice
You’ll forget
You’ll forget my voice
We all get
We all get that choice
You’ll forget

And it will be like we never happened
And it will be like we never happened

And that’s your choice
That’s your choice
That’s your choice
That’s your choice
We all get, we all get
That’s your choice
Though I wish that it’d be different
That’s your choice
That’s your choice
