Those Days

"We're not working out," that's what I said to you,
It broke my heart to see yours break too,
We both know it was the best for both of us,
We've grown so far together but we've grown further apart,
We were so young when we got together,
I think we did quite well cos we had a lot of fun but,
Who wants to be involved but not romantically?
Was that the same for you as it was for me?
Those days are gone, old and overdone,
You were not the one, I am not the one,
People keep telling me they've seen a change lately,
I bet you didn't know I could cope all on my own,
That's not me tryna say you didn't help in any way,
I got too comfortable and I relied on you,
For anything and everything and that's no way to live,
Something had to change, we couldn't stay that way,
So in the end I had to leave, pack my stuff, give back the key,
It was hard at first but it could've been so much worse,
Those days are gone, old and overdone,
You were not the one, I am not the one

Always Moving

It's another sunny evening in the middle of September,
An unfriendly reminder that the Summers nearly over,
Though I may be a bit more tanned, my hair's a little longer,
Nothing's really changed except I keep getting older,
The hands are always moving,
And you know the scary thing is that my friends are going places,
Chantelle's already married and Ashleigh's had a baby,
I'm only 21, still young, a girl not yet a lady,
And time won't stop for anyone so you might as well embrace it,
The hands are always moving,
Someday these fears will leave my head and I'll be settled down,
I'll look back to being younger and wish it'd all worked out,
I've got big plans for the future though I'll doubt they'll come to be,
I've kind of always known that I'd never be anything,
The hands are always moving

Come and Get It

Lights out, go to bed,
I can see what's happening now,
There's a struggle in your head,
You want in but she wants out,
Don't be selfish, don't force it,
Is this really what you want,
This is something you'll regret,
When you wake up in the morning,
"Come and get it,"
That's what you claim she said,
Not with words,
But by the way she was dressed,
Black and blue, under clothes,
Somewhere he shouldn't go,
They're the battle scars on your arms,
The ones you'll never show,
It was over so quickly,
But in that moment time moved so slow,
What drives someone to do that?
I'll never know
"Come and get it,"
That's what you claim she said,
Not with words,
But by the way she was dressed

Forget It

Forget it,
Go ahead and forget it,
What we had was nothing,
What we have is nothing,
And I know you always wanted more,
Secretly I wanted it all,
I was never brave enough to admit it,
So I went and lost it,
That's too bad, bad for us,
Was it even real? It went so fast,
To love and to lose or to have never loved at all,
We were never in love, but I managed to lose you,
I'm over it, are you over it?
Was there even anything to get over?
My body is fine but my mind has fallen,
Into thinking about you,
I was fooled,
I fooled us all
That's too bad, bad for us,
Was it even real? It went so fast,
To love and to lose or to have never loved at all,
We were never in love, but I managed to lose you,
I was fooled, I fooled us all,
I've always said what will be will be,
But what if that was you and me?
I'm not even sure that I want it to be,
Just wanted to have a chance to see,
That's too bad, bad for us,
Was it even real? It went so fast,
To love and to lose or to have never loved at all,
We were never in love, but I managed to lose you

There For You

Taking everything into consideration,
I think I've done quite well this year,
It doesn't make me happy to see you sad,
I've seen you smile more than I have in a long time,
I'm sorry for hurting you,
It doesn't make it ok, but you know I never meant to,
Cos you were always on my side,
Even though half the time you knew I wasn't right,
I just wish that I could've been there for you,
Sharing a bed with my best friend,
But we don't know that's all we are yet,
And I feel so much guilt,
I just wish I could've been what you deserved,
I'm sorry for hurting you,
It doesn't make it ok, but you know I never meant to,
Cos you were always on my side,
Even though half the time you knew I wasn't right,
I just wish that I could've been there for you,
Cos you were always on my side,
Even though half the time you knew I wasn't right,
I just wish that I could've been there for you
