[Verse 1]
Writing these feelings down for you to forget
Swearing him off to suppress your regret
You think you gave him everything
But that’s the reason you’re suffering
[Refrain]
We can’t always have it our way
The stars align darling
But not in a day
[Verse 2]
Looking at places where you thought you’d find
That lover who would understand your mind
Don’t keep on wasting your time
Longing for boys with their petty clever lines
[Refrain]
When did you lose your sight?
On the concrete you’ve fallen hard
With no maps to guide you, I’d get lost too
[Verse 3]
Reading the pages of your memories
From blots and creases of your old diary
That’s when you realized what was real
You had to die just to feel
