lyrics

In the fading light
I can barely make you out
I trace your lines all in my mind
Yet they seem like shadows now
Were you up in the morning?
Was I ever really safe?
because all I felt were my feet sinking
And I saw you look away

So how was I supposed to feel
when the one who loved,
the one who knew me best
always thought I wasn't good enough?
Yeah, I always felt second best

So if you come this way
Don't stop because you'll only find I'm not the same
person who’d do anything for your love
now I want for it to go away
Because I tried so hard to fix all my dark
But none of that was worth the wait
So stop lying
You never wanted me

In the morning light
When I get up out of bed
and give myself over to thinking
All the things that could've been
If I had given it all away
would you still love me?
even though it was everything
that first drew you to me?

How was I supposed to feel
when the one who loved,
the one who knew me best
always thought I wasn't good enough?
Yeah, I always felt second best

So if you come this way
Don't stop because you'll only find I'm not the same
person who’d do anything for your love
now I want for it to go away
Because I tried so hard to fix all my dark
But none of that was worth your wait
So stop lying
You never wanted me
