Wanted Me To Be

Once we were over
I thought I could last for a while
But your name kept on coming up
And so did the memories
I remember when we fought and I got so angry
I could've done worse but I still felt the love
Then this time it was worse
Over something so dumb.
You didn't want me to mention your name
Who would force their girlfriend not to mention his name?
So I did anyway
And by the way I was getting over you so it didn't hurt
When we said our final goodbye.

[Start of Chorus]
But I guess we weren't meant to be
You kept my eyes covered so I couldn't see
The truth behind you-ou
And now I know the truth
You tried to make me be your slave
The memory of you seems to be engraved
Somewhere inside of me
I know who you wanted me to be
I thought that we were meant to be
And our love was our destiny
Why did you want to change me
And make me what you wanted me to be?
[End of Chorus]

You said you didn't want to change me
And I was perfect in every way
But you tried to make me do certain things
Isn't that changing me?
But I feel a pull
I don't know what it is
But it wants me to talk to you
Then I remember all the pain
Your name becomes an annoyance
Because it keeps on coming up on replay.

Love songs mean nothing to me anymore
You had my heart and I took it back
Well read my songs
They tell a story
And most of that story is about you
Don't feel special or honored
Because most of it means nothing anymore
So that's why I'm writing a bunch of songs expressing how I feel now.

[Additional chorus]
I want to push away
But something about you makes me wanna stay

[Chorus 1x]

So I still remember our final goodbye
But I still want to talk
Then I remember the secrets you told me
Although I talked to people about you
I never leaked your secret
So you owe me
So just talk to me or something okay?
'Cause I have a whole bunch of tricks up my sleeve
So answer these questions
You wanted me to be something I'm not?
And now who do you want me to be?

Too scared to answer?
Thought so.
