Rejection

I had it wrong for so long in my head

I was walking around like I was dead

And all the time my mind was stuck on you

And I crawled while you stalled

I was a fool to think we were involved

I guess I needed to believe it so bad

Rejection never felt this good

Everything unclear now so well understood

At first I didn't see it as kind

But you did me a favor when you left me behind

You might not believe it but it's true

It's all those things you never said that told me all about you

It's the things you try to conceal that get revealed

And I had to get it wrong before I got it right

I'm not the kind to argue, I'm not the kind to fight

By the time I reached the truth I had reached the end

Rejection never felt this good

Everything unclear now so well understood

At first I didn't see it as kind

But you did me a favor when you left me behind

Now I'm alone and I'm burning

I am hurting like hell but I am learning

The scars will take me far like they always do

And I believe I'm alright

I do believe I'm alright

Rejection never felt this good

Everything unclear now so well understood

At first I didn't see it as kind

But you did me a favor when you left me behind

'Cause now I see how you are

Now I see how you are

Now I see how it is

And now I see what you do

And now I watch 'em line up

I watch 'em fall down

One after one

One after one

I watch your smile

Grow and grow and grow and grow

I think to myself

It could've been me (No way)
