we broke up, but it was my fault
i knew it was wrong from the start
but i fell for you, and i fell too hard
fell so far that i let down my guard

i'm just trying to do what's right
but the right feels so wrong
didn't know i'd have to fight
i thought i was too strong

but now that we're apart
i don't know where to start
i broke my own heart
and i want to restart

but how can i redo
what we never were?
how can i undo
the mess that we still are?
how can i make you
appear here in my arms?
when we knew what would happen from the start?

i ended things before i could think
about the way it'd make me feel
but shit, maybe it was for the best
'cause you would've reeled me right back in

but now that i'm alone
i'm just sitting by my phone
don't know how to live without you
'cause you were my only home

how can i redo
what we never were?
how can i undo
the mess that we still are?
how can i make you
appear here in my arms?
when we knew what would happen from the start?

i don't wanna see you with some other guy
i won't be able to look him in the eyes
the thought of someone with what's mine
oh it fucking kills me inside
i keep telling myself that it's for the best
but every night i can't seem to rest
and every day my head is a mess
so am i just kidding myself?

i want to redo
what we never were
i'll learn how to undo
the mess that we still are
i'll somehow make you
appear here in my arms
even though we were doomed from the start
