Mend (lyrics)

Did I ever really love you

Did I ever take the time

Did I ever really want you

Or did I just want you to be mine

Did I hold you like a trophy

When I should have held you like a friend

This is my confession, I treated you like a possession

All along, but what I possessed was at best pretend

And now what I’ve broken I can’t...

Did you ever really know me

Did I ever really share

Any part of me that really mattered

Would you have even cared

Did I hold you like a trophy

When I should have held you like a friend

This is my confession, I treated you like a possession

All along, but what I possessed was at best pretend

And now what I’ve broken I can’t mend

It’s always two broken people trying to complete each other/ always left with missing pieces looking out for just another/ and we wonder why no one seems to stay in love together/ It looked so healthy in the sunlight but so sick in stormy weather/ maybe it’s better without me and my significant other together/ but right now I’m thinking of all the ways I could’ve-should’ve loved her better/ yeah, maybe she’s starting to move on, without me right by her side/ when all we had was good intentions and cliches to get us by/ I can still remember the way the tears fell from her eyes/ and I still hope there’s more to love than all these Hollywood lies (I’m singing)

Did I ever really love you

Did I ever take the time

This is my confession, you were never my possession

I wasn’t yours, and you were never mine
