lyrics

Nobody is perfect
Yeah, yeah I can say it all I want, it doesn't change the fact you're hurting
And you don't deserve this
Yeah but my reoccurring actions make you think that I prefer this
You told me that this is it
Yeah but I have a hard time believing you, doesn't seem feasible
Judging by your past it doesn't seem like something you would do
Strong enough to fight 'til forever if you had to
Back against the ropes and you made it to round 2
You scraped and you scrapped I heard every single story
You embraced the hate and then you turned it to your door key
It's hard to admit that I was wrong about you
So wrong about you
Yeah it's hard to admit that

I didn't realize you needed water to live
I didn't realize you gave everything you had to give
My whole life you were standing on your feet
How was I supposed to know that you were just like me

With flaws and weaknesses and things that made you human
I thought you lived without them like you had always proven
So I took advantage and lived the way I planned it
Not thinking about anyone and taking you for granted
I'm walking 'round here thinking I'm the man then
You finally broke down and I did it single handed
You told me that you would never trust me again
But you did and I gave you a reason not to trust me, again
You said The Boy Who Cried Wolf was the story I was raised on
And that a big heart was the thing in which I prayed on
You said it's so typical of me, so common
To look you in the eyes and tell you that I promise
Yeah I promise, yeah I promised
And I lied and I'm sorry, at least now I'm being honest

I didn't realize you needed water to live
I didn't realize you gave everything you had to give
My whole life you were standing on your feet
How was I supposed to know that you were just like me

I didn't realize, I swear I didn't realize
That I was just like you and you were just like me
