about
(We weren't really sure what to do with the end of this track in studio, but we went with what we thought would be best. It was never supposed to be the last track, but it just worked best that way)
lyrics
What’s mine isn’t yours, and what’s yours was never mine.
Am I wasting my time?
I saw something different in you that no one else could see,
But now I realize it never existed.
So then I fake another smile to gain a little acceptance;
You’re not getting anywhere else.
I always wondered if it’s just me,
Or does everybody go through this?
I always wanted that something special,
And I needed it so much.
I did anything to convince myself
That this is a fairy tale romance,
But oh how foolish can we sometimes be.
Am I wasting my time?
Every time you enter the room,
I’m holding on to these past memories.
What’s mine isn’t yours
And what’s yours was never mine.
I always wanted that something special,
And I needed it so much.
I did anything to convince myself
That this is a fairy tale romance,
But oh how foolish can we sometimes be.
I try bending the truth
When I lie awake at night, every night,
But these walls close in and consume me,
I walk into the waterfall, I’m so far from where I should be.
Taking my time, and spilling the lies from your mouth.
Showing my bad side, and showing my weak side.
Where has that good girl gone? My friends said she never existed.
Just how did they see through this foolish desire?
I needed you so much,
I did anything to convince myself
That this is a fairy tale romance,
But oh how foolish can we sometimes be.
