Hi Bree,

I think you have something going here...just maybe needs some more details to flesh it all out, imo. I pretty much agree with the comments already. I was going to mention the double negative in the chorus also that is confusing:

I’ve gotta face up to the lie
that life won’t go on without you

I'd like to know what they did say to each other, or weren't willing to do before they "set it aside" and then I can understand her more when she decides to say her goodbye.

Good luck!

Kristi
