lyrics

Was I the only one who believed
Or was I fucked up from the start?
Was I the only one who thought you could be perfect
Or was I all alone?
Was I the only one who believed
Or was I fucked up from the start?
Was I the only one who thought you could be perfect
Or was I all alone?

Fuck this, I'm not ready for the answers that I've found
I can't find a way to process just how fucked this is
I don’t understand why we make mistakes
Or why we’re fucking flawed inside
All I wanted to do was make myself the best that I could be
But it seems like no matter what I do
I always end up at the start

We're just broken shells
We can't run

It's not making sense to me
The people we rely on
Let us down, run away from who they once were
Fall far from innocence
I thought so much better of you
Turns out we're all just the same
Conviction left by the wayside to rot away

So was I the only one who believed
Or was I fucked up from the start?
Was I the only one who thought you could be perfect
Or was I all alone?
Was I the only one who believed
Or was I fucked up from the start?
Was I the only one who thought you could be perfect
Or was I all alone?

It's not making sense to me
The people we rely on
Let us down, run away from who they once were
Fall far from innocence
I thought so much better of you
Turns out we're all just the same
Conviction left by the wayside to rot away

So was I the only one who believed
Or was I fucked up from the start?
Was I the only one who thought you could be perfect
Or was I all alone?
Was I the only one who believed
Or was I fucked up from the start?
Was I the only one who thought you could be perfect
Or was I all alone?

I used to be so sure of who I was
Lately the lines have blurred
I look forward to the man I'll become
And he’s looking more and more like a stranger
With a familiar smile
I’m not sure if it's time wearing me down
Or I’m finally seeing the world through unfiltered eyes

Holy shit, people aren’t perfect!
But I’m finally seeing that it doesn’t matter
That I’m not the person that I wanted to be
It's taken eighteen years, but its finally hit me
We're not perfect
