(No) Faith In Fate

Lay with me, as the Sun creeps through the trees

Maybe as the day recedes

We can find what we've been missing

I thought it was the beginning

With all of the grinning and sinning

That we were committing only to giving

And living in this newfound bliss

But all at once it was shattered, and none of it mattered

I gathered the pieces and tried to pick out the pattern

To figure out just why you turned from my kiss

If it isn't real enough, then give it up, don't lock it down

If it isn't real enough, then give it up and turn around

I give up, forgive, forget, then begin to reconstruct

I thought it was the beginning

With all of the grinning and sinning

That we were committing only to giving

And living in this newfound bliss

I thought I could make it better by writing a letter

But never decided whether us tethered together

Was ever what we both really wanted from this

If it isn't real enough, then give it up, don't lock it down

(Fake love, you can't fake love)

If it isn't real enough, then give it up and turn around

If it isn't real enough, it's not love lost, it was never found

If it isn't real enough, then why wake up just to wait around?

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

And this is the world telling me so

Used to have some faith in fate

Now it's something I can't shake

Tell me, is it true, that thing they say?

"Good things come to those who wait"

But, while I'm collecting dust

All the good ones get swept up

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

(If it isn't real enough, then give it up and turn around)

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

(If it isn't real enough, then give it up and turn around)

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone
