I've never been the type
To dread the time I'm left with my own thoughts
I used to count the seconds till I was back homeNow I try
Not to watch the clock hand move to twelve
I've never been the type
To lose myselfOh something has changed
I dont recognize the me I'm without you
She's not enough to get me throughOh and I never liked
The me that I turned into next to you
Her roots grew deep and killed all I ever knewI've never been the girl
Who'd let her favorite season pass her by
Or who'd forget to love the things she's always lovedSo now am I this girl
Who needs a crowd of people by her side?
Since your honest farewell drugged me through the mudOh something has changed
I dont recognize the me I'm without you
She's not enough to get me throughOh and I never liked
The me that I turned into next to you
Her roots grew deep and killed all I ever knewAll I ever knew
You killed all I ever knew
Now I don't know what to do
She was all I ever knew
Should I miss who I was
Or mourn for who I'll never be
I lost I all I ever knew
What pains me the most
Is that you took what I chose to give
I killed all I ever knewSo much has changed
My walls, my hands, my hips, my lips are stained
And I keep waiting for the rainTo kill the drought
To drown the demons that I used to live without
And help me find all I ever knew
