Honestly it hurts too much to think
Of you with anyone but me
And I’m not trying to be anything but happy
I let go so long ago it seems
But the extensions of these dreams still call and reach for me
And I’m not trying to do anything but sleep
When I think back to the day
Before all of this
and you
washed over me
The relief I crave
Seems as distant as the sea
From a mountain peak
And I’m not trying to say anything,
Okay?
This was all a big mistake
This was all a big mistake
This was all a big mistake
This was all a big mistake
This was all a big mistake
Fell apart and there I stay
Floating in the pool of apathy
Diluted by recovery
Affixed to the idea of
Who we were trying to be
This was all a big mistake
Fell apart and there I stay
Floating in the pool of apathy
Diluted by recovery
Affixed to the idea of a better way
to change
Honestly it hurts too much to think
Of you with anyone but me
And I’m not trying to be anything but happy
Here’s the very rough demo with the initial lyrics – I made a brief change already removing the “remembering” from the last verse before the re-introduction.
I’ll be working on this one and a bunch of others for this project this summer so keep an eye out for more sneak peeks.
