Hoped We Would Be Lyrics

When that song comes on

My mind starts to pace

Wanders the corridors

Until it sees your face

Down the darkest hall

Last door on the left

That's where you reside

Surrounded by my defects

You're the one who made me happy

The only one I let surround me

And left these wishful memories

Of what I always hoped we would be

So I hold them close to my heart

But bury them deep in my mind

Because I can't handle seeing

What they've become over time

Maybe I veiled my eyes

Hid them from the truth

Living in denial

Feeling lost without you

But you never cared

And it took time to see

I meant nothing to you

But you were everything to me

I always thought you made me happy

The one I loved obsessively

And pined over old memories

Of what I always hoped we would be

I held them so close to my heart

But buried them deep in my mind

Because I chose not to believe

Your feelings weren't the same as mine

I was living in denial

I hoped you'd love me in time

But I was never worth the fight

A stranger who was once your bride
