lyrics

You know I couldn’t believe it
How you couldn’t perceive it
You would rather lie to me
You’ll be fine in spite of me
You know I couldn’t believe it
How you didn’t receive it
Wasted time denying me
You’ll go on in spite of me
I’d rather go our separate ways, it’s fine
Some things are better off just lost in time
You know I couldn’t believe it
How you didn’t need it
So I let it die in me
Just so I could set it free

You know I hope things get better
I’m rooting for you
Just know that I hold no envy
It’s not what I do
I’m a fly by the night kinda guy
Here today and gone by the night
We were made to fail by design
Sorry if I made you cry
I’m working hard to be selfless
It’s hard when I feel so helpless

You know I couldn’t believe it
But now I’ve grown, and life has shown, that’s how it goes
You know I couldn’t believe it
But now I’m grown, I should’ve known, what I can’t control

Oh is it intuition? Or is it my suspicion? (You’ll never know, that’s how it goes)
Oh is it intuition? Or merely my suspicion? (You’ll never know, just let it go)
What is this strange feeling? Feel like I got no meaning (You’ll never know, that’s how it goes)
Oh is it intuition? Or is it my suspicion? (You’ll never know, that’s how it goes)

I know it couldn’t be, I’m okay because it couldn’t be
I’m okay with you without me, I’m okay because it couldn’t be
I’m okay, we never could be
I’m okay with you without me
I’m okay with you without me
(Ad libs til end)
