This Whole Time

False alarms,
Awkward moments,
Fallen times with what you expected,
Stolen heart,
A wall to hide your tears,
No one really knows what they've got
Until it's gone,
A strong tide coming in.

Quit trying to be someone else,
There are times we'll struggle,
Built bridges and bright candles,
But nothing's ever good enough for you.

Who will rescue you?
Who will help you when you dig yourself a hole?
Gunning for the main prize,
Wondering what it would be like to have it all,
But you had it all,
And you let it die this whole time.

Quit trying to be someone else,
There are times we'll struggle,
Built bridges and bright candles,
This whole time wasn't ever good enough for you.
