lyrics

With the shades pulled down, dissolving into your couch, I stare at the floor so I don’t stare at your mouth. This is what I wanted for me. This is what I wanted to be all this time. She’s rolling her eyes as I preempt my regret, and she avers that I’ve been hedging my best. This is what I wanted for me. This is what I wanted to be all this time. And, by the door, you’re finally telling the truth; I swallow my tongue ‘cause I don’t know what to do. This is what I wanted for me. This is what I wanted to be all this time. And maybe I lied or maybe I liked it, but I’ll keep it inside because this wasn’t my kiss. And maybe I’m fine or maybe I’m hiding. This is what I wanted for me. This is what I wanted to be all this time. This is what I’m starting to see: maybe you just weren’t meant to be mine.
