lyrics

it's not the way you like
but it's easy to deal with it for now
not something you would try
but you'll vouch for it anyhow
not the one you want, there's nobody even close
you said you were there
and I found you where nobody else would go

something that's only true
as long as it never gets said out loud
the less to do with you
the more that it makes you proud
go ahead and laugh I would too if I were you
you said you were there
but you told me something I already knew

who I would be if I were you
maybe I'd finally know who
just like before when you became
just as much myself as I am
you don't really know

for every hour you
spent trying to keep all these thoughts at bay
there was somebody who
spoke so clearly you turned away
I'm already gone but I'll never say goodbye
you said you were there
and I found you when nobody else would try
you said you were there
and I found you when nobody else would try
