Not Meant to Be

One word puts you up on the defensive
Boy, tell me how did we get to this?
Trying so hard to hold onto everything
I never really had a grasp off

I want you to love me more
Than you've loved before
Oh, what I wouldn't give to hear you say
"Yeah, that's her!"

Instead all I hear is
"No, there's no one, I'm alone."
How can you let those words
Leave your lips while I crumble at your side

I thought I had everything
I thought I could be the one
That changes everything you stand for,
All that your reputation tells

But I was so so wrong
And it's never hurt so much
For those words to leave my lips
Like venom piercing into the heart

I never meant anything
No matter how hard you fight
To make me believe your lies
That I am wrong

I wish I could change you
But It's near impossible
And boy now I see
I'm not the one that's meant to be

Here holding you hand
