Mending Stars

Trying to hold the weight of both sides
One slip, and it’s all a landslide
Every word feels like a landmine
And I’m tryna step light

But how do I fix what I didn’t break?
How do I give when there’s more to take?
Every move I make, I hesitate
‘Cause someone’s always losing when I play it safe
And if I choose a side, it’s a big mistake
No way out, I just rotate

There’s no right way to make it okay
Someone’s gonna hurt, someone’s gonna say
That I let ‘em down, that I walked away
But I swear I stayed, I swear I stayed
No right way to make it alright
One heart wins while the other’s tight
Every bridge I build gets set in flames
And I take the blame, I take the blame

Five days, counting down the minutes
Every plan feels like I’m not in it
Late texts, yeah, I know I missed it
And I get why you’re livid

But how do I fix what I didn’t break?
How do I give when there’s more to take?
Every move I make, I hesitate
‘Cause someone’s always losing when I play it safe
And if I choose a side, it’s a big mistake
No way out, I just rotate

There’s no right way to make it okay
Someone’s gonna hurt, someone’s gonna say
That I let ‘em down, that I walked away
But I swear I stayed, I swear I stayed
No right way to make it alright
One heart wins while the other’s tight
Every bridge I build gets set in flames
And I take the blame, I take the blame

Maybe love’s not picking sides
Maybe love’s just trying
Maybe love’s just staying
Even when you can’t get it right

There’s no right way to make it okay
Someone’s gonna hurt, someone’s gonna say
That I let ‘em down, that I walked away
But I swear I stayed, I swear I stayed
No right way to make it alright
One heart wins while the other’s tight
Every bridge I build gets set in flames
And I take the blame, I take the blame

Oh, no right way
Oh, no right way
