It Wasn't You

Lauren O'Connell

Compositor: Lauren O'Connell

I was listening to songs
You sent once when you couldn't pay for a bus
Though the music's still nice
To be honest, I really don't think of you much
I just like the band
I just like the band

When we talked on the phone
Your voice started breaking, you said you were scared
That you might die alone
I'm pretty sure there will be someone there
But it never should have been me
It never should have been me

Just to be clear, you stayed perfectly kind and you still do
But I'd do you a disservice to resort to lying and say
It wasn't you

I should say, get your head out of fiction
Those people you love cannot love you back
Are you too proud for wishing
For anything more substantial than that?
You're allowed to say yes
You're allowed to say yes

Quit saying you're cursed
You're the only one cursing so please just calm down
Don't try to be a martyr
They just die because nobody wants them around
You know I'm right
You know I'm right

'Cos it certainly wasn't me.
