What You Thought You Meant To Me

Lyrics

I wish that I could tell you All the things you want to hear And whisper little nothings Ever sweetly in your ear And write you pretty love songs And hope they sound sincere But that’d make me a liar And I wouldn’t lie to you my dear And I wish that I could show you The big old world you wanna see And I wish that I could give you  All you try to take from me But it seems that I don’t know you  Only what you want me to be But I know I must be going Something better’s waiting on me  So I won’t be Coming around no more Wish I’d never seen What was hiding behind your door As for you and me We can go back to how it was before I knew, you were gonna use me up And that you take from and poison my cup The further that I get from it it gets so clear to see That you never really meant what you thought you meant to me I wish I could give you More back than you take And put it on your shoulders  And see how fast you break But with empty hands I’ll go Because it’d break my heart to stay I’m better off alone With empty hands I fold to pray I Wish I could forget The little part still holding on To a little thread she said Would always be our bond To my heart that’s beatin Up from always falling hard Wonderin’ why do I keep crawling back To a falling house of cards? So I won’t be Coming around no more Wish I’d never seen What was hiding behind your door As for you and me We can go back to how it was before I knew, you were gonna use me up And that you take from and poison my cup The further that I get, it gets so clear to see That you never really meant what you thought you meant to me... yeah you never really meant what you thought you meant to me
