I Could've Been

I Could've Been - In Her Own Words

You never wanted to see me leave this

I never wanted to stick around

And there's a rainstorm in my head that

I just can't outrun right now

I'm faking smiles and stomachs aches

So I can get away

Sometimes I think that I'm the only

One who feels this way

The only things holding me back are my own thoughts in my head

And I can't understand why I can't just move on and get passed them

It's probably my own fault and who's to say I can't fix it

But maybe sometimes life just gets in the way

I thought that with a change of pace

That I could get the hang of this

You're just another something that I can't seem to erase

I thought that with a change of pace

That things would start to feel okay again

I guess I'm never gonna learn

I guess I'm never gonna learn

I tried to make it to the ending

Of a book I never read

I'm relapsing to my old self trying to skip all these steps

I'm faking smiles and stomach aches

When I start to feel trapped

It's hard to breathe

I never thought that I would lie

To the ones who stay close to me

I thought that with a change of pace

That I could get the hang of this

You're just another something that I can't seem to erase

I thought that with a change of pace

That things would start to feel okay again

I guess I'm never gonna learn

I guess I'm never gonna learn

Could you tell I wasn't honest I could've been I could've been

I couldn't be all that you wanted

Could you tell I wasn't honest I could've been I could've been

I couldn't be all that you wanted
