Was It Me - $tRETCH

The first time I met her, she walked right up to me And said you're who I've wanted to find There was a man she had seen in her dreams And it was me She said I can't believe it 'cause I've never been in here And I've passed this so many times It was her night to find destiny And it was me And we danced every song that they played And talked until closing time The closer I held her, the more I knew her destiny Wasn't that far from mine Then I saw a reflection of someone unfamiliar Looking back when I looked in her eyes The happiest man I'd ever seen And it was me And we danced every song that they played And talked until closing time The closer I held her, the more I knew her destiny Wasn't that far from mine She wasn't looking and I wasn't looking Ain't it funny that's when love was found? She still calls it her lucky night Yes, someone was lucky, she's right But it was me, it was me

I broke your heart 'cause mine was already broken And let you take all of the blame I slammed that leavin' me door that was closin' And I called you every name Under the sun and said you ain't the one But if I'm bein' honest, boy I wasn't bein' that honest, boy Had some ghosts in my closet I had to set free Had to unpack that baggage, boy Yeah, I had to drown out all the noise So I could see that it wasn't you I didn't love, it was me Your hands on my body, your lips on my lips Just made me hate me even more And boy, I'm so sorry but the ugly truth is I was just so insecure But you didn't break me So how could you save me? Yeah, if I'm bein' honest, boy I wasn't bein' that honest, boy Had some ghosts in my closet That I had to set free Had to unpack that baggage, boy Yeah, I had to drown out all the noise So I could see that it wasn't you I didn't love, it was me I was takin' my hurt And hurtin' you with it And for whatever it's worth I wish that I didn't Yeah, if I'm bein' honest, boy I wasn't bein' that honest, boy I had some ghosts in my closet I had to set free Oh, had to unpack that baggage, boy Yeah, I had to drown out all the noise So I could see that it wasn't you I didn't love, it was me No, it wasn't you I didn't love It was me

Do you remember when we were so good? Or do you forget like I do, forget like I do? But you were my first and you've taken a piece of me I painted you in the blame and it's not okay I was selfish Couldn't help it But I still care about you, still care about you, now I know I'm stubborn But I still think about you 'Cause maybe it was me I just couldn't see But maybe it was me who fucked it up Or maybe it was us So helpless and young Or maybe everything was all my fault And I regret All the times Of leaving you, in the back of my mind 'Cause maybe it was me And I just couldn't see But maybe it was me Magnified all of you flaws in my head We know that I've got mine too, I've got mine too Wonder if you have forgiven me yet 'Cause I am still trying to, I am still trying to I was selfish Couldn't help it But I still care about you, still care about you, now I know I'm stubborn But I still think about you 'Cause maybe it was me I just couldn't see But maybe it was me, who fucks it up Or maybe it was us, So helpless and young Or maybe everything was all my fault And I regret All the times Of leaving you, in the back of my mind 'Cause maybe it was me And I just couldn't see But maybe it was me Oh, oh Oh, I finally realised (oh) I've opened my eyes And now I see (oh) 'Cause maybe it was me I just couldn't see But maybe it was me who fucked it up Or maybe it was us So helpless and young Or maybe everything was all my fault And I regret All the times Of leaving you, in the back of my mind 'Cause maybe it was me And I just couldn't see But maybe it was me

I became a footnote in your life But you were in the final draft of mine As I watch the ink bleed off the page I'm wondering how I was so easily erased When did you become this cruel? We were really something weren't we? But you wanna rewrite history How do I remember us so differently? We were really something weren't we? Or was it just me? Or was it just me? Call me a sentimental fool 'Cause memories are not the same as truth Details start to blur around the edge I know it's doing me no good to reminisce When did I become this blind? We were really something weren't we? But you wanna rewrite history How do I remember us so differently? We were really something weren't we? Or was it just me? You won't give me a passing thought But I deserve at least that much Don't act like it was only make believe That we were really something weren't we? But you wanna rewrite history How do I remember us so differently? We were really something weren't we? Or was it just me? Was it just me?
