Just Because

I can say it if you don't know how
Good intentions never make a sound
I thought nothing ever gets past you
So I thought you knew how to read my mind

What's the point, why do we even try?
Conversations on a loop, and I
Can't see a happy ending where
The credits get a round of applause

And everything you want
It isn't here, I'm not the one
Don't get me wrong, we had our fun
But now I'm long gone

What will it take for you to see
That I was always gonna leave?
I know you want this to be love
But it isn't me
And it isn't us
I think you need something I'm not
Or you just carelessly forgot
That just because you think it's love
Doesn't mean it is
Doesn't mean it was

I can tell that you romanticise
Every second that I look into your eyes
But you're not even thinking straight
I won't hesitate as I say goodbye

'Cause everything you need
It doesn't have to come from me
It's nice to say we had our fun
But when it's all said and done

What will it take for you to see
That I was always gonna leave?
I know you want this to be love
But it isn't me
And it isn't us
I think you need something I'm not
Or you just carelessly forgot
That just because you think it's love
Doesn't mean it is
Doesn't mean it was
