We were talking about how much easier it is to say
What we're thinking in writing or through songs
So I guess I'll try it out
I want you to know that I truly did like you
I'm sorry that I pushed you away and made you
Question us, but there is no doubt that we had something
We make each other happy, and I know that
You wouldn't mess us up if I gave you a chance
Yeah, I gave you my best shot
Shooting targets in the dark
Looks like I missed your heart (Your heart)
You were jaded by the past
Decided we were gonna crash
That's why we fell apart
Thought it would save us the pain
Keep us from going insane
And so you called it off
You forgot the biggest risk
All the chances that you miss
Are ones you never start
I just wanted a chance with you
We were hella happy and things were new
I guess now that I see your view
You were just tryna speak the truth
But after thinking about it, I realized that
It doesn't matter how amazing the person is
I just don't want to be with anyone
I've got this intangible feeling of wanting
To be free for as long as I can remember
It's the reason why I constantly talk
About wanting to get away
Not just physically free but mentally too
Free from this exhausting weight
That I've been carrying for a while now
I don't know if that makes any sens, and I know that
The weight has nothing to do with you
But I fear that if I'm desperately missing
Someone at home, then it will keep me from
The freedom that I want
Yeah, I gave you my best shot
Shooting targets in the dark
Looks like I missed your heart (Your heart)
You were jaded by the past
Decided we were gonna crash
That's why we fell apart
You wanna go somewhere free
Thinkin' that's your destiny
So I will let you go
We have a hopeless romance
Divided by circumstance
I'll learn to live alone
This is the point in the conversation where
You would tell me I'm overthinking
And I most definitely am, I liked you too much not to
If we were together right now, then the date August 6th
Would always be reminding me of our automatic deadline
It'd be constantly in the back of my mind
And it would keep me from being happy with you
I can't help it, I'm sorry
For the pain I have caused you
You have a certainty in your dreams and in yourself
That more people need to have
I wish nothing but the best for you, and I hope
That we can stay in each other's lives
Yeah, I gave you my best shot
Shooting targets in the dark
Looks like I missed your heart (Your heart)
You were jaded by the past
Decided we were gonna crash
That's why we fell apart
That's why we fell apart
That's why we fell apart
That's why we fell apart
That's why we fell apart
