Dear diary, it's 3 AM
And I'm writing words I'll never send
I've got your name between the lines
Of every song I've left behind

I spent years chasing ghosts of us
Trying to fix what time destroyed
Holding onto broken memories
Like they could fill the empty void

Every page tells the same old story
Every scar still knows your name
But tonight I'm done pretending
That we can be the same

This is Cassie's confession
The truth I've never said out loud
You were my favorite disaster
But I can't save us now

This is Cassie's confession
The final chapter of our song
I loved you more than anyone
But loving you was wrong

I remember parking lots
And cheap guitars under the stars
We swore we'd never change at all
Now I don't know who you are

Maybe we were just two kids
Trying to outrun growing up
Maybe some hearts are only meant
To teach us how to let go

Every page tells the same old story
Every scar still knows your name
But tonight I'm done pretending
That we can be the same

This is Cassie's confession
The truth I've never said out loud
You were my favorite disaster
But I can't save us now

This is Cassie's confession
The final chapter of our song
I loved you more than anyone
But loving you was wrong

So here's the part I never told you
I stayed too long
I held on too tight
I kept turning back

Looking for us
In places we'd already left behind
And my confession is simple
I finally let you go

This is Cassie's confession
The last tear on the last page
I'm done reliving yesterday
I'm stepping off the stage

This is Cassie's confession
No more circles, no more lies
You'll always be a part of me
But not the rest of my life

Dear diary
If you're reading this someday
Tell her she survived
And finally learned
How to say goodbye
