I wish it was just another day
Another ordinary, nothing extraordinary
Just a boring Sunday morning
When doing nothing's the only something we've got planned
But not today
We're falling apart and it's showing that we're basically just trapped in captivity
Wishing our way out.
Just let me cross my fingers behind my back
And I'll swear on anything you want me to after that
I've heard that if I cross my heart then I'd have to die
If you don't want to say goodbye
Then I guess you'll have to learn to love the lie.
You and me, we're really nothing but enemies
Pretending we're not meant to be.
I don't want to be the one to stay
I don't want to be the one that got away
And if I'm being honest, you couldn't get rid of me anyway
I don't want to be the one to stay
What the hell for heaven's sake
I don't want to be the one that got away.
If Massachusetts had a loyalty
I hope it wouldn't choose you over me
And if you're wondering what keeps me up at night
It's thinking that you might be right.
Just let me cross my fingers behind my back
And I'll swear on anything you want me to after that
I've heard that if I cross my heart then I'd have to die
If you don't want to say goodbye
Then I guess you'll have to learn to love the lie.
You and me, we're really nothing but enemies
Pretending that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
I don't want to be the one to stay
I don't want to be the one that got away
And if I'm being honest, you couldn't get rid of me anyway
I don't want to be the one to stay
What the hell for heaven's sake
I don't want to be the one that got away.
You can say what you want about me
The old me would not apologize
You can do what you want without me
If only I could keep us from colliding.
Over-analyzing every move we make
We think were just surviving
But slowly we were dying
Until the rattle somehow brings us back to life
So let's learn to love the lie.
I don't want to be the one to stay
I don't want to be the one that got away
And if I'm being honest, you couldn't get rid of me anyway
I don't want to be the one to stay
What the hell for heaven's sake
I don't want to be the one that got away.
Just let me cross my fingers behind my back
(I don't want to be the one that got away)
And I'll swear on anything you want me to after that
(I don't want to be the one that got away)
I've heard that if I cross my heart then I'd have to die
If you don't want to say goodbye
Then I guess you'll have to learn to love the lie.
