[Verse 1]

I’m really not as smart as people think

I lose at everything before I even try it out

I never even let you play our little game of love

Hazy childish thoughts of where two people should belong

[Chorus]

I never meant for you to be collateral damage

I never meant for you to be there

I didn’t mean for you to be collateral damage

It was the right place but the wrong time

I never meant for you to be collateral damage

I never meant for you to be there

I didn’t mean for you to be collateral damage

It was the right place but the wrong time

[Verse 2]

I never thought I was enough for you

I was underleveled and you were a final boss

But as selfish as I am

I just left you behind and didn’t think of it at all

[Chorus]

I never meant for you to be collateral damage

I never meant for you to be there

I didn’t mean for you to be collateral damage

It was the right place but the wrong time

I never meant for you to be collateral damage

I never meant for you to be there

I didn’t mean for you to be collateral damage

It was the right place but the wrong time

[Outro]

I never meant for you to be collateral damage

I never meant for you to be there

I didn’t mean for you to be collateral damage

I didn't mean for you to get hurt
