I Was Wrong
V1:
I got my feelings out,
But I lied.
No, I didn't lie,
But I was wrong.
You don't deserve to breathe,
You don't deserve a damn song.
Because angels don't breathe
And no one's good enough to sing along.
Chorus:
I was wrong,
When I said you deserved the world.
The world's a dirty place,
So you deserve outer space.
You don't deserve the stars,
Because they all burn out.
You don't deserve the oceans,
Because they all turn into clouds.
V2:
Words aren't good enough,
Because actions speak louder.
But I will sit still,
Until you find a girl to be proud of.
I could treat you better than a king,
But you deserve a queen,
Someone who is perfect and could make you happy.
Chorus:
I was wrong,
When I said you deserved the world.
The world's a dirty place,
So you deserve outer space.
You don't deserve the stars,
Because they all burn out.
You don't deserve the oceans,
Because they all turn into clouds.
V3:
As you can see,
You don't deserve anything.
You deserve perfect,
And nothing is perfect.
So you deserve nothing,
Because you are nothing.
My nothing and everything.
I got my feelings out,
But I lied.
No, I didn't lie,
But I was wrong.
You don't deserve to breathe,
You don't deserve a damn song.
Because angels don't breathe
And no one's good enough to sing along.
Chorus:
I was wrong,
When I said you deserved the world.
The world's a dirty place,
So you deserve outer space.
You don't deserve the stars,
Because they all burn out.
You don't deserve the oceans,
Because they all turn into clouds.

And nothing is perfect.

My nothing and everything.
