Accidents Happen

You say you’re born in storm,

But I watch you wait it out.

Not to question your intentions,

But I think I’ve figured you out.

And all this time I’ve spent with you

And all this time I’ve felt alive

In all this time I’ve got to know

Who we are can be a lie

 

You say what you have to to get me stay

Accidents happen, when living this way,

You change yourself in an effort to please

But what you are, you will never be.

This time there’s no settling.

 

You’ve cut that blue ribbon

But I’ve watched with empty eyes

Cause you know it’s not yours to claim,

You know you can’t take that prize,

And all this time I’ve spent with you

And all this time I’ve felt alive

In all this time I’ve got to know

Who we are can be a lie

 

You say what you have to to get me stay

Accidents happen, when living this way,

You change yourself in an effort to please

But what you are, you will never be.

This time there’s no settling.

 

All this life, is is making decisions

If what we want is good enough to want it

(To want it)

I want to feel like, nobody’s watching what I do,

You don’t want me for what I’m not,

And everything that ever was between us,

We realize is gone.

 

In all this time I’ve got to know

Who we are can be a lie

 

You say what you have to to get me stay

Accidents happen, when living this way,

You change yourself in an effort to please

But what you are, you will never be.

This time there’s no settling.

 

Not to question your intentions,

But I think I’ve figured them out…
