Oil and Water

We were part of a world that few understood And we checked all the boxes they said we should I went mad tryin' to be what you need And I tried to be everything for you but me Yours ain't the first Heart that's been broken Words that were spoken We fall in love til we stumble into Our true nature We find out later After the fireworks that we are doomed Doomed We're like oil and water What can we do Ooh I'll still be me And you'll still be you I talked more than I listened and didn't leave space You would hoard your emotions until you would break You went mad tryin' to be what I need And I longed for the person that you tried to be Yours ain't the first Heart that's been broken Words that were spoken We fall in love til we stumble into Our true nature We find out later After the fireworks that we are doomed Doomed We're like oil and water What can we do Ooh I'll still be me And you'll still be you Why the long face Give them a smile, put on a nice display We all gotta choose To struggle together or face solitude Yours ain't the first Heart that's been broken Words that were spoken We fall in love til we stumble into Our true nature We find out later After the fireworks that we are doomed Doomed We're like oil and water What can we do Ooh I'll still be me And you'll still be you
