Lyrics

Instant
The way that we fit when we met
All the smiles and the laughs effortless
It's like life had been leading to this
Talking
Talking as the room fell away
Swore our hopes and our dreams were the same
But time and space led us astray
It's such a shame
'Cause it hurts when things aren't meant to be
When the vision can't quite be achieved
I caught a glimpse of what could be someday
Then fate pulled a fast one and took it away
And it felt so right that it's hard to admit that now
All that aligned is just wasted
Wasted potential
Tailored
The way I thought the world made you for me
The way I thought that you'd be everything I need
That's just typical naive, romantic, idealizing me
Oh it hurts when what's good is what's gone
So I'll cry and I'll ache till my mind can move on
From when I caught a glimpse of what could be someday
Then fate pulled a fast one and took it away
And it felt so right that it's hard to admit that now
All that aligned is just wasted
Wasted potential
We're wasting potential
I try to hold tight but the vision can't last
When the stars don't align, oh the sky is too vast
It came desperately close but that wasn't enough
And now all that we held turned to dust
Is it worse to be blind than to see a thing fade
To be dreaming in colour then jostled awake
We got close to perfection but it wasn't enough
And now all that we'll ever be
I caught a glimpse of what could be someday
Then fate pulled a fast one and took it away
And it felt so right that it's hard to admit that now
All that aligned
And all that we are
And that we'll ever be
Is wasted potential
We're wasting potential
Wasted potential
There goes potential
