Turning Out (part II)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I am not chosen, or that unique

Honestly, you were and you chose me

Maybe I fucked up everything

Is this how it feels to be blue?

You said you'd love me, no matter what

You said you'd love me, is that what I loved?

All of these choices messed me up

And everyone's mean, except you

I think I probably wasn't in love with you

I think I probably loved the idea of you

And though I may be missing the feel of you

I think I probably wasn't in love with you

I said it 'cause I no longer wanna hurt

I said it back to you 'cause you said it first

And though I may be wishing it wasn't true

I think I probably wasn't in love

I wasn’t in love with you

I was too worried how we'd end up

I wasn't looking and you grew up

Now I'm here writing this dumb song

'Cause I can't even tell you the truth

I think I probably wasn't in love with you

I think I probably loved the idea of you

And though I may be missing the feel of you

I think I probably wasn't in love with you

I said it 'cause I no longer wanna hurt

I said it back to you 'cause you said it first

And though I may be wishing it wasn't true

I think I probably wasn't in love

I wasn't in love with you

This is gonna break your heart

I'm so sorry, yeah, I know

This is gonna break your heart

Is this all that life's about?

Trying to love how you turn out?

I don't love it much at all

This is gonna break your heart

I'm so sorry, yeah, I know

This is gonna break your heart

Is this all that life's about?

Trying to love how you turn out?

I don't love it much at all

I don't love it much at all
