It Wasn’t Meant To Be

Lyrics

[Intro] It's the start of the show [Verse 1] I'm choosing my words carefully Don't want there to be any misunderstandings But I stand by the things I said There will be no retraction I'm not tryin' to go emo Hurt people hurt people or something like that (Something like that) Did I overstep the mark? It was the wrong time for us, no hard feelings [Pre-Chorus] You'll be the one that got away You'll be the one that could have changed things You recited your lines, but I'm left cold I suspect we could be happier [Chorus] It wasn't mеant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't mеant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be [Verse 2] I'm choosing my words carefully I'm sorry if you got the wrong impression But there will be no apology Let's settle up and keep this shit moving There's a time to be humble There's a time to be proud There's a time to be complicit And there's a time to say shit loud [Chorus] (It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be) To say shit loud (It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be) Yeah, you made me get loud (It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be) See, there you are (It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be) The real you at last [Verse 3] I hit a nerve, we're right back there I'm letting you down at your birthday table I know I should have stopped myself But I felt for a while that this thing was over A year from now we'll laugh about this A year from now, just like old friends You'll be a scar I've learned to live with Once we see ourselves from the outside [Chorus] It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be (From the outside) It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be [Bridge] There's a version of our future Where I said the right things to you consistently There's a version of our future In which I tried Say hey to Adam for me [Chorus] It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be It wasn't meant, it wasn't meant to be
