Sondre Lerche
It’s Never Meant To Be
[Verse 1]
The falling leaves of yellow make
A cliché of a selfish ache
Collapsing on the ground without
A sound of life

[Verse 2]
They make a perfect soundtrack to
Our desolate self-righteous view
Miscalculated jokes aside
We're out of time

[Chorus]
And honestly
It's never meant to be
You must've known it secretly
And honestly
It's never meant to be
It's not a great conspiracy

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

[Verse 3]
Now rain rise to guarantee
I understand reluctantly
My silent treatment almost overcompensates

[Chorus]
But honestly
It's never meant to be
I must've known subconsciously
And honestly
It's never meant to be
It's not a great conspiracy
Don't hold your breath for destiny to drive

[Chorus]
Hey honestly
It's never meant to be
We had to know inherently
Hey honestly
It's never meant to be
Don't hold your breath for destiny

[Outro]
(honestly (?))
