I kept you at a distance
Built walls to keep you out
The silence grew between us
Until no more warmth was found

I searched through my old memories
Of the happier times we spent
Found only faded versions
Of what our love once meant

Then I saw you with another
Walking down our old street
Laughing at some inside joke
That used to belong to me

La la la, oh oh oh 
La la la, oh oh oh 

I had to walk away 
To understand
Had to break it all 
Had to break it all
I had to fracture you
To build anew
Had to break it all 
Had to break it all

I saw you at the coffee shop
On some random Tuesday night
You looked older, softer somehow
But that was all alright

We talked about the weather first
Then slowly let it fall
The pretense and protection
We'd built up like a wall

You said you'd been thinking
About the way we ended things
How we were too young and stupid
To know what love can bring

La la la, oh oh oh 
La la la, oh oh oh 

I had to walk away 
To understand
Had to break it all 
Had to break it all
I had to fracture you
To build anew
Had to break it all 
Had to break it all

To start with you ...
Anew..
Had to break it all..
Had to break it all…
Anew
Had to break it all
Had to break it all….

You Weren't Meant to See That

lyrics

(verse)
i never noticed the booze
or all the context clues
my dad hurt u
he hurt me too

i kissed a couple of dudes,
but that was in my youth 
i’m still confused
i’m still confused 

how’m i the family glue?
i’m only 22
my egos huge
i’m still a douche

breaking hearts till they bruise
or at least trying to 
sex doesn’t do
what it used to do


(pre chorus)
i’m a coward too
with the shortest fuse
always sad & blue
& then i realized


(hook)
i’m just a buzzkill
looking for a lover
i’m just an asshole 
working undercover
like 
what do u see in me?
what do u see in me?


(verse)
i haven’t moved on from u
i only pretend to,
you’re just a muse
that’s nothing new

& i don’t mean to intrude 
but could u tie my noose
it’s a little loose
kind of like u

i’m sorry all that i knew
was how to tell the truth
i swear to u
i’m not that rude

i know u hated me too
cause i am not like u
i do the things
that u can’t do


(pre chorus)
i’m a coward too
with the shortest fuse
always sad & blue
& now/then i realized


(hook)
i’m just a buzzkill
looking for a lover
i’m just an asshole 
working undercover
like 
what do u see in me?
what do u see in me?


(bridge)
i don't wanna fall in love again
i don't wanna fall in love again
i don't wanna fall in love again
i don't wanna fall in love again
