it's a beautiful intent
the way that we aim
for the impossible
not sensational if we fail
and never pretend
'bout a single thing
I'm the first to admit
just can't make it fit always - no
wish I would have shut my mouth
why did I say it loud?
hear me out it wasn't me
behind those words
behind those words
I don't recognize
myself at times I lose touch
with who we really are
drop the guard
shouldn't be that hard
but I badly need backup
how to say 'I'm sorry'
but how? you are yeah
wish I would have shut my mouth
why did I say it loud?
hear me out it wasn't me
behind those words
sometimes I fall away from the truth
believe me didn't think I
could say something like that to you
(something like that to you)
it wasn't me behind those words, hmm
it wasn't me behind those words
there's a different story (different story)
you never will hear (never will hear)
I hope that somewhere
get to show you my side (my side)
and the whole picture (whole picture)
and did I ever mention
please forget what I said now
don't mind those words, hmm
honestly I didn't mean anything
it wasn't me behind those words
you know I fall away from the truth
believe me didn't think I
could say something like that to you
it wasn't me behind those words
