NOT MEANT TO BE YOU

Somebody out there’s looking just like me
Somebody out there’s crying
Feeling like I used to feel
To you I’m just a face in a crowd
And if you heard me shouting, would you help me out?

I don’t want to hear your name
It hurts too much and yet I feel the same
You never listened
I know I never gave you chance
You never wanted to understand

Maybe I just wanted to kill you
Maybe I would die without you
You took my heart and turned it into sand
And when I needed you to hold me
You felt so cold, you couldn’t be so far away
I should’ve known then but I know now
This just won’t do
It’s not meant to be you

Why do I feel I’ve been wrong
To trust you with my feelings for so long
Don’t want to remember how you held me so close
But since you don’t need me I can’t need you

Maybe I just wanted to kill you
Maybe I would die without you
You took my heart and turned it into sand
And when I needed you to hold me
You felt so cold, you couldn’t be so far away
I should’ve known then but I know now
This just won’t do
It’s not meant to be you

Hold me now in you arms (and take me away)
Hold me close so I can’t see what’s outside
All I know is that I have to break away
I can live without your love
Even though I feel as if my heart has died

Maybe I just wanted to kill you
Maybe I would die without you
You took my heart and turned it into sand
And when I needed you to hold me
You felt so cold, you couldn’t be so far away
I should’ve known then but I know now
This just won’t do
It’s not meant to be you
