lyrics

Verse
Oh what a day I just had
Watching progress go bad
It was awful and sad
Now I'm second guessing my plans
And I'm breaking my hands
Now come on and command

Prechorus
I'll get carried away in the night
With a vision silver and bright
I just watched a year fly by
And I'm bout to watch another

Chorus
Oh my god if this happens again
And we get to the end
And I'm still not any further
I'll pack my things in the back of a room
And refuse to resume
As I watch it slip away from me
This really wasn't meant for me
This really wasn't meant for me
It really wasn't meant for me

Verse 2
I think something has crawled in my sheets
Made my insides deplete
Now I won't go to sleep
It's got me juggling thoughts
I need more of a lot
But I've got what I've got

Prechorus
I tried doing it all on my own
But my cover was terribly blown
I just watched a year fly by
And Im bout to watch another

Chorus
Oh my god if this happens again
And we get to the end
And I'm still not any further
I'll pack my things in the back of a room
And refuse to resume
As I watch it slip away from me
This really wasn't meant for me
This really wasn't meant for me
It really wasn't meant for me

Chorus
Oh my god if this happens again
And we get to the end
And I'm still not any further
I'll pack my things in the back of a room
And refuse to resume
As I watch it slip away from me
This really wasn't meant for me
Really wasn't meant for me
It really wasn't meant for me
