What I Did Lyrics

I was left in the dark

Dreamt of sleeping in your car

I was hoping it would help

Cause who I am is where you are

Soon back in the 214

New York I could not afford

Says I'm still caught up on something

So we don't talk anymore

What I wanted was a feeling

When you threw the thought away

I was thinking I could call you

But did not know what to say

I grew tired of believing

That we're better off alone

Tried to tell you all about it

But you won't pick up your phone

What I did won't get away from me

What I did's been done but I couldn't say it

Oh, I'll give it time

Did you keep me in your heart

Was it weaker than the start

Barely hanging by a thread

The separation played a part

Left it in your kitchen drawer

Just can't keep it anymore

It's important not to tell you

What I no longer ignore

All I wanted was to be met

With some reciprocity

I am missing you like crazy

But I've got to let you be

I grew tired of believing

That I'd never feel the same

The healing's automatic

Just addicted to the pain

What I did won't get away from me

What I did's been done and I can't replace you

Just give it time

Might take a while

What I did won't get away from me

I'm so sorry girl, I know that you hate me

I just give it time

A broken heart still beating on the floor

But real shit, can't take it anymore

I stuck around because you said that it would change

But it's just the same story told a couple different ways

You tell your friends that you didn't really care

But there are secrets that you didn't wanna share

I think about it everywhere I go

And I see the same face in everyone I know
