I never understood why everything was all my fault
When you were always wrong
And why I had nobody on my side
I wouldn't call it clever
I'd say its a chance to pull out of this slump
That I've been in for the past year
Well I cant seem to help desperately searching
For something I can make work

We were too shaken up to draw the shades darling
The years arent moving backwards
This isn't who im supposed to be
I need a break from all this change
After all these years I finally get
What you were trying to tell me

I wonder what it feels like to know
That you were just a phase that I was going through
And I, I just want something im proud of
I just want something I can believe in
There's not a profound bone hidden in your body
Do your words reach this far?
Tell me who you think you are

We were too shaken up to draw the shades
Darling, the years arent moving backwards
This isn't who im supposed to be
I need a break from all this change
After all these years
I finally get what you were trying to tell me

I heard you were home
But I just didnt have the courage to give you a call and
I have gotta tell you, I'd rather compromise with someone
Than end up alone

Than end up alone
