Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Worth leaving for?
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Worth leaving for?
Well, I feel like a mind reader
A fortune teller, a soothsayer
I wish that I could be surprised
Or shut down my conscience and be a player
But I can't betray her
Though I know how the road ends
Land surveyor
Plans conveyed her
Best intentions paved in gold
But that gold is layered
Forged in hell, pain and joy
Repeating like a skipping
Glitching, scratching record player
Tracks all merge on this conveyor belt
And in case you wonder what it felt like
It's like insight betrayed my own mind
Oh, what I wouldn't give to be surprised
Please, prove to me that my mind lied
Make me feel stupid and just blindside me
And smother me until I'm blind or die
Hey, weren't you supposed to be my...
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Worth leaving for?
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Worth leaving for?
You said, "don't leave me, please
I don't know what this is yet, see
But I only just found you
And I don't want to lose you
I just don't want to leave the surface yet"
I said, "Boo, don't even think about it"
I'm a ghost, and I never doubt it
I haunt hearts for eternity
And I never do the leaving
You'd have to exorcise me
Or I'll be there for every sunset"
But you don't need me
I know how this ends
And I'll keep it to myself
Be your friend 'til then
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Worth leaving for?
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Weren't you supposed to be the one
Worth leaving for?
