She doesn't wanna talk about it
I said "That's funny, 'cause you're always talking 'bout it to him"
Yeah, you're talking to him
You're what I see when I close my eyes
The water ripples into your reflection
When I close my eyes, all I see is you
But it won't come true
I'll cut the chord and try to leave it
You're blocking out potential lifetimes
Just to find it wasn't what you wanted
I tried so hard to be someone else
All to find I wasn't what you wanted
Moving on is overrated
And I only think that when you're talking to him
You just keep talking to him
He's what you see when you close your eyes
The spotlight of love wasn't on me
To be honest with you
I blame the engineer
Are you really here?
I'm starting to think that you're leaving
You're blocking out potential lifetimes
Just to find it wasn't what you wanted
I tried so hard to be someone else
All to find I wasn't what you wanted
And do you swoon at the thought of the grease from his locks?
Or spend your days dreaming of the life you left for nought?
Oh
That illusion you cast made me think to the past
And in my daydreams I saw you walk away
You're blocking out potential lifetimes
Just to find it wasn't what you wanted
I tried so hard to be someone else
All to find that I wasn't what you wanted
What you wanted
(I tried so hard to be someone else)
What you wanted
(All to find I wasn't what you wanted)
