Verse 1:
I’ve been over drinking
so I start over thinking
get stuck in this space and make up your end of the conversation
Ooh looks like it’s breaking
Oh it’s another mistake
and I’ll replay the things you don’t say yeah
the things you don’t say
Chorus:
Why do I have to break things that aren’t broken
Why do I try to take Love in over doses
Why do I have to pretend I gotta hold on my emotions
Why do I try to take Love in overdoses
Verse 2:
oooh it’s way too late
for me to be sitting here sending texts
from my phone that I just know
I’m gonna regret when the night is over
sometimes I just can’t explain it
my head it runs away
and I’ll replay the things you don’t say yeah
all the things you don’t say
Chorus:
Why do I have to break things that aren’t broken
Why do I try to take Love in over doses
Why do I pretend I gotta hold of my emotions
Why do I try to tae Love in overdoses
mid 8
Just need for me to realise
some things they aren’t worth the fantasise
guess i thought it’d be different for you and i
x 2
Chorus:
Why do I have to break things that aren’t broken
Why do I try to take Love in over doses
Why do I pretend I gotta hold of my emotions
Why do I try to tae Love in overdoses

[VERSE 1]
Why d’you always blame somebody else for your actions?
I put you up on this shelf, just watched it happen.
You’ve gone too far over the line, leaving me behind, and now you can’t see
That baby you just can’t come back, back to me.
[PRE]
Over again, seeing it in my head, You on her, skin on skin,
Saying that I’m what you need but boy you can’t pretend,
cuz you want her, but you’re pulling me in.
[CHORUS]
I, feel like a fool like a fool for loving you,
I feel like a fool,
I feel like a fool like a fool for loving you,
I, I, I
[VERSE 2]
All this weight is dragging me down, tryna compromise,
Maybe I was weak, cuz I believed and carried your lies.
I thought you had a conscious, thought I knew the truth, all I ever wanted was to hear it from you.
Cuz baby we just can’t go back, but I can't move…
[PRE]
Over again, seeing it in my head, You on her, skin on skin,
Saying that I’m what you need but boy you can’t pretend,
cuz you want her, but you’re pulling me in.
[CHORUS]
I, feel like a fool like a fool for loving you,
I feel like a fool,
I feel like a fool like a fool for loving you,
I, I, I

18 again

[VERSE 1]
Sometimes, I wonder what it would have been like, if we hadn’t of met that night,
If I never knew you.
Other days, I remember the good times, and then I wanna rewind cuz I know that it would’ve been better
When I didn’t know your name or your favourite thing to drink,
the way you just need to drive when you can’t think
Wish I didn’t know everything…
[PRE]
Cuz maybe then it wouldn’t hurt so much,
I wouldn’t miss you the away I do
I wouldn’t be thinking of you
and all the things that I can’t undo.
[CHORUS]
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again
back when, back when, when we were still friends
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again
before it was the end, when we didn’t have to pretend
I, I, I wanna be, I, I, I I wanna be I
[VERSE 2]
I wonder, if I’ll be able to erase, the way you used to say my name,
and the way you held me.
Will there ever be somebody else, who makes me feel the way I felt,
when it was you and me together…
Wish I didn’t know your name or your favourite thing to drink,
the way you just need to drive when you can’t think
Wish I didn’t know everything… wish I wasn’t faded.
Now I sitting here alone, with a glass full of regret,
Everyone’s asking why you’re not there
But if you were never there…
[PRE]
Maybe then it wouldn’t hurt so much,
I wouldn’t miss you the away I do
I wouldn’t be thinking of you
and all the things I can’t undo.
[CHORUS]
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again
back when, back when we were still friends
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again
back when, back when, when we didn’t have to pretend
Back when it was simple, before the end
back when it was easy, I wanna, I wanna forget …
Who you are…
[BRIDGE]
I know we can’t turn back, but would you even want to,
if you had the option, I know I would go back to...
When I didn’t know your name or your favourite thing to drink,
the way you just need to drive when you can’t think
Wish I didn’t know everything… wish I wasn’t faded.
Now I sitting here alone, with a glass full of regret,
Everyone’s asking why you’re not there
If you were never there…
[PRE]
Maybe then it wouldn’t hurt so much,
I wouldn’t miss you the away I do
I wouldn’t be thinking of you
and all the things I can’t undo.
[CHORUS]
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again
back when, back when, when we were still friends
I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again
before it was the end, when we didn’t have to pretend
I, I, I wanna be, I, I, I wanna be I

Chorus:
I wish you were my ex
that we'd break up and
I'd wish you all the best
close the curtain
I wish you were the one that got away
it would be easy
if you were my ex, I wish you were my
[Verse 1]
they wouldn't ask too much
I could just say that we broke up
there wouldn't be endless questions
no second guessing
they would say burn your stuff
they wouldn't try to make us make up
saying that we'll change our minds
it'll just take some time
[Pre]
We were inseparable, til you went and severed all the times we made
friends for life we said
sitting up late at night it's easy to forget why things won't change,
I've tried again and again
[Chorus:]
I wish you were my ex
that we'd break up and
I'd wish you all the best
close the curtain
I wish you were the one that got away
it would be easy
if you were my ex, I wish you were my
[drop]
[Verse 2]
It would be like a reset,
gave you my all no regrets
I could just kiss somebody
and I wouldn't feel so lonely
[Pre]
We were inseparable, til you went and severed all the times we made
friends for life we said
remember we were so attached, too much of a good thing goes bad sometimes and I still want you back sometimes.
[Chorus:]
I wish you were my ex
that we'd break up and
I'd wish you all the best
close the curtain
I wish you were the one that got away
it would be easy
if you were my ex, I wish you were my
[drop]
[mid 8]
I don't remember why we shouldn't be together
If we were lovers maybe then I could forget ya
I don't remember why we ever stopped talking
Guess in my head we were just way too toxic
[Chorus:]
I wish you were my ex
that we'd break up and
I'd wish you all the best
close the curtain
I wish you were the one that got away
it would be easy
if you were my ex, I wish you were my

[VERSE 1]
I can’t be the only one counting down the days
Phone calls are all we got but they’re just not the same
I usually love my own space,
But it’s getting lonely, I can’t wait
No I’m not the only one
So sick of holding on
[CHORUS]
It’s gonna be, gonna be so much sweeter
(when you’re next to me, next to me)
I know those lips, they’re gonna taste so sweet yeah
(put ‘em on to me, on to me)
All this time in-between no it won’t mean a thing
when you’re back right where you should be
It’s gonna be, gonna be so much sweeter
when you’re next to me
na na na, na na na
[VERSE 2]
Had you at my finger tips, and I still do in a way
I’m starting to notice, took you for granted before things changed
Loosing the small things hurts most
Like a kiss in the morning with burnt toast
but I’ma savour every minute the next time that you’re in it baby
[MID 8]
I’ll be running and running and running running to you
Promise I’m gonna be running, running to you
You’re the only one that I wanna be running to running to
I’ll be running to you
X2
[CHORUS]
It’s gonna be, gonna be so much sweeter
(when you’re next to me, next to me)
I know those lips, they’re gonna taste so sweet yeah
(put ‘em on to me, on to me)
All this time in-between no it won’t mean a thing
when you’re back right where you should be
It’s gonna be, gonna be so much sweeter
when you’re next to me
na na na, na na na

only you

VERSE 1:
I liked who I was when I was with you
but that person’s long gone now
I don’t live the way I used to
Guess it took you a while to come back around
you know when it hits you right in the chest
can’t escape it, lost in this
you were never like the rest
you’d run away leaving me a fucking mess
PRE:
(it I fall)
If I fall you’re not far behind
(touch my skin)
Touch my skin, it all unwinds
(all unwinds)
(if it all)
It it all fell right in to place
(just let go)
I just let go, would it all change
(would it all change)
CHORUS
What if we did every stupid thing that you said
Gave you my heart and lost my head
It’d be you, that I’d have to loose
What if we ran for miles, left this place
would we even last a day
If it was you, only you
VERSE 2:
It’s strange I don’t think we ever said goodbye
Years pass but it feels like seconds
and I can never work out why
These feelings don’t fade the way I expected
PRE:
(it I fall)
If I fall you’re not far behind
(touch my skin)
Touch my skin, it all unwinds
(all unwinds)
(if it all)
It it all fell right in to place
(just let go)
I just let go, would it all change
(would it all change)
CHORUS
What if we did every stupid thing that you said
Gave you my heart and lost my head
It’d be you, that I’d have to loose
What if we ran for miles, left this place
would we even last a day
If it was you, only you
Outro:
What if we ran for miles, left this place
Would it be you, only you
Only you…
