Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Here's the thing)
(You're in love with a version of a person)
(That you've created in your head)
(That you are trying to, but cannot, fix)
(Uh, the only person you can fix is yourself)
(I love you, this has gone on way too long)
(Enough is enough)
(I'm two blocks away, I'm coming over)
[Verse 2]
Painted a picture
I thought I knew you well
I got a habit of seeing what isn't there
Caught in the moment
Tangled up in your sheets
But you broke my heart
I said you only wanted half of me
[Verse 3]
My imagination's too creative
They see demon, I see angel
Angel, angel without a halo
Wingless angel
[Verse 4]
Falling, falling, but I never thought you'd leave me
Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh
I thought you were the one
But it was all in my head
It was all in my head
(Skrrt, skrrt) Yeah
[Verse 5]
Look at you
Boy, I invented you
Your Gucci tennis shoes
Running from your issues
Cardio good for the heart
I figured we could work it out
[Verse 6]
Painted a picture
I thought I drew you well
I had a vision
Seeing what isn't there
Caught in the moment
Tangled up in your sheets
But you broke my heart
Said you only wanted half of me
[Verse 7]
My imagination's too creative
They see Cain and I see Abel
Abel, Abel
I know you're able
Willing and able
[Verse 8]
Falling, falling, boy, I thought that you would need me
Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh
Thought you were the one
But it was all in my head
It was all in my head
(Skrrt, skrrt) Yeah
[Verse 9]
Look at you
Boy, I invented you
Your Gucci tennis shoes
Running from your issues
Cardio good for the heart
I figured we could work it out
[Verse 10]
Wanted you to grow but, boy, you wasn't buddin'
Everything you are made you everything you aren't
I saw your potential without seeing credentials
Maybe that's the issue
Said, maybe that's the issue
Can't hold that shit against you
Guess I did it to myself, yeah
Thought you were somebody else, you
