It Never Was (OCD Version) Lyrics

Maybe in another branch of time

There is a life we didn't lead

Though it's impossible to know

And more impossible to be

Maybe you should never have been mine

And here it's true I must concede

Our lives are as the droplets flow

On either side we cannot see

It's not you, it never was

It was just my twisted head

You're not you, you never were

You were just the words I said

Could you indulge a fantasy box

Could you delude yourself for years

Though it's impossible to live

And only possible to dream

Why couldn't you unchain these cruel locks

Why couldn't I stop all the gears

I couldn't find a way to give

All that I knew was how to scheme

It's not you, it never was

It was just my twisted head

You're not you, you never were

You were just the words I said

The lies we tell ourselves to comfort

That gnawing sense that we're not whole

As if someone else will know us just by calling out

Casting wishes will fail to give us

The stuff of dreams that made our goal

Accept no one else will answer, though your mind may shout

It's not you, it never was

It was just my twisted head

You're not you, you never were

You were just the words I said

Maybe in another life

Maybe when this one is dead

Maybe in another life

Maybe when this one is dead
