Lyrics:
Thought by now you would be
So goddamn tired of always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard learning to let go
Of something just out of reach, something I’ll never know
Can you stay, don’t go
Don’t leave me all alone
I hate when my mind plays tricks
And starts to roam
My co-dependency gets the best of me
But through rose-tinted glasses is the world I see
It’s the world I see, it’s the world I see
You’ve got my heart ensnared, my vision impaired
Don’t act like you cared when you were never there
Thought by now you would be
So goddamn tired of always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard learning to let go
Of something just out of reach, something I’ll never know
If I wait too long it always feels so wrong
We’re stuck on repeat, singing the same old song
In every melody, you’ll find a piece of me
But through rose-tinted glasses is the world I see
It’s the world I see, it’s the world I see
We can’t be repaired
There’s no damage here
Why the hell would you care when you were never there
Your mind’s a temple, but it’s barren
Your words familiar, but so foreign
Why do we plague ourselves with familiar tells
When all we’re doing is creating our own hell
You were my cure for the loneliness
But I think it’s time that I digress
Thought by now you would be
So goddamn tired of always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard learning to let go
Of something just out of reach, something I’ll never know
I thought by now you’d be tired of chasing unrequited love
Even when I’m out of breath, I try to keep up
Chasing unrequited love
Oh, unrequited love
Oh, unrequited love
And if it’s all the same to you
I’d like to see it through
Make amends, it depends what you want to do
Quell the ache in my chest before it consumes you
Consumes you
In all the time that you’ve had
All the loves you’ve let go
Did you ever feel whole at all
What kind of puzzle is this
There’s pieces missing again
And the pain on the surface is wearing thin
What kind of puzzle is this
There’s pieces missing again
And the paint on the surface is wearing thin
Are we peeling it back only just to pretend
There was something there to begin with
Thought by now you would be
So goddamn tired of always lying away from unrequited love
I find it so hard learning to let go
Of something just out of reach, something I’ll never know
I thought by now you’d be tired of chasing unrequited love
Even when I’m out of breath, I try to keep up
Chasing unrequited love
