lyrics

I met you at a very strange time
Somewhere between crossing worn out lines and
Breezing into a new perspective
of my world and myself.
I didn't think you'd do me wrong
But then I realized I had read you wrong
As something more ideal than what you turned out to be
What you turned out to be.

Now I know that this is not a fairytale
You're not the purest prince with the best intentions
I was aware of that, oh I was aware of that.
Even though I knew I was not your very own
I thought there was something between us
Not romantic but platonic
That made this thing unique
But I was wrong
Oh I was so wrong
Oh I was so wrong
Oh I was so wrong

I was low-key attached to you
What can I say, I just liked talking to you
I didn't expect anything more.
But then I realized you lived a double life
Doing our things with them
It is not alright to go for my friends
It makes me feel so damn diffident
You make me feel so diffident

Now I know that this is not a fairytale
You're not the purest prince with the best intentions
I was aware of that, oh I was aware of that.
Even though I knew I was not your very own
I thought there was something between us
Not romantic but platonic
That made this thing unique
But I was wrong
Oh I was so wrong
Oh I was so wrong
Oh I was so wrong

When I heard her say in sincerity
The exact same words you'd said to me
I realized that you were no good
And I had to cut you off.
You could've at least changed it up a little bit
But your sloppiness taught me a lesson
That nothing is as gold as it seems
Oh, no one is as gold as they seem
Nothing is as gold as it seems
Oh, no one is as gold as you perceive them to be

Now I know that this is not a fairytale
You're not the purest prince with the best intentions
I was aware of that, oh I was aware of that.
Even though I knew I was not your very own
I thought there was something between us
Not romantic but platonic
That made this thing unique
But I was wrong
Oh I was so wrong
You are just like the other boys
And I have to cut you off
