There was a way things were supposed to be
Only joy and beanie babies in elementary
In middle school my crush held my hand
After I sang at the school dance and
High school didn't end in teenage adultery
My parents are happily married
I met the one and we're so in love it's scary
My grandma passed knowing that I was the next Dylan
And my goal was never monetary
If it's all been for nothing
But If all that never happened
Better me through the cold
Then it all happened as it should
My dad never battled addiction
My ear to my heart in turn
I'm not looking for affection
In a place where none is given
I don't blame my dad pick your poison
Wasn't sober at 19 never boring
I go out with 20 somethings
Be the chaos that I'm wanting
And you're not the thing that I'm missing
If it's all been for nothing
But if all that never happened
Then you and I weren't supposed
To be anything other than
You and I weren't supposed
To be anything other than
If it's all been for nothing
Someone keep lying to me I don't mind
If there's a silver lining
But if all that never happened
Made me this bold a better me through the cold
Then you and I weren't supposed
To be anything other than
You and I weren't supposed
To be anything other than
You and I weren't supposed
To be anything other than
