Somebody I Used To Know

I guess

I was looking for more than the world

would allow us to have

I guess

I couldn’t let go because I loved the chaotic past that

we had

I guess

I knew what true heartbreak felt like and I was

avoiding ever feeling it again

I guess

I thought our love was forever even after the mess

I guess

I guess

I have a tendency to hold on

to things that are slipping from my hands

I guess

I thought god would fix his mistake

of not letting us be together long enough

that we would finally find each other again

I guess

I knew

What it meant to move on

How I would forget your face,

The feelings would fade,

And you would become a memory

that I only revisited in dreams

And

I guess

I guess

That’s why I held on so tight

even though my hands were bleeding.
