We were talking about how much easier it is to say

What we're thinking in writing or through songs

So I guess I'll try it out

I want you to know that I truly did like you

I'm sorry that I pushed you away and made you

Question us, but there is no doubt that we had something

We make each other happy, and I know that

You wouldn't mess us up if I gave you a chance

Yeah I gave you my best shot

Shooting targets in the dark

Looks like I missed your heart

You were jaded by the past

Decided we were gonna crash

That's why we fell apart

Thought it would save us the pain

Keep us from going insane

And so you called it off

You forgot the biggest risk

All the chances that you miss

Are ones you never start

I just wanted a chance with you

We were hella happy and things were new

I guess now that I see your view

You were just tryna speak the truth

But after thinking about it I realized that

It doesn't matter how amazing the person is

I just don't want to be with anyone

I've got this intangible feeling of wanting

To be free for as long as I can remember

It's the reason why I constantly talk

About wanting to get away

Not just physically free but mentally too

Free from this exhausting weight

That I've been carrying for a while now

I don't know if that makes any sens, and I know that

The weight has nothing to do with you

But I fear that if I'm desperately missing

Someone at home then it will keep me from

The freedom that I want

Yeah I gave you my best shot

Shooting targets in the dark

Looks like I missed your heart

You were jaded by the past

Decided we were gonna crash

That's why we fell apart

You wanna go somewhere free

Thinkin that's your destiny

So I will let you go

We have a hopeless romance

Divided by circumstance

I'll learn to live alone

This is the point in the conversation where

You would tell me I'm overthinking

And I most definitely am, I liked you too much not to

If we were together right now, then the date August 6th

Would always be reminding me of our automatic deadline

It'd be constantly in the back of my mind

And it would keep me from being happy with you

I can't help it, I'm sorry

For the pain I have caused you

You have a certainty in your dreams and in yourself

That more people need to have

I wish nothing but the best for you, and I hope

That we can stay in each other's lives

Yeah I gave you my best shot

Shooting targets in the dark

Looks like I missed your heart

You were jaded by the past

Decided we were gonna crash

That's why we fell apart

That's why we fell apart

That's why we fell apart

(That's why we fell apart)

(That's why we fell apart)
