Over You

Think of the time you spent with someone who didn't know your name
Or of the things you seem to notice when you start to feel ashamed
Everyone has got the right to feel good enough to try
You don't understand the getting there's as important as the why

Somebody said that you were lucky but you weren't really there
Sinking below the rising water when you stumbled into air
Isn't it enough to feel you're adequately fed
With all the rumors that provide you with your breakfast in bed

I can't get over getting over you
Some of the best things you care for
Are the things you never choose
Wouldn't you rather want the things you want
That make you want the things you never had
The things you never had

Isn't it bad to think you can't live without yourself by your side
Wouldn't be better if when it's tough you don't have to run and hide
Isn't it bad to think you can't run and hide
When you're exposed to all the beauty that failure can provide

Who do you know that wouldn't tell you when you sprint across the line
Dividing the place you never looked for and the one you left to die
Didn't you say that you would never cheat a friend
But all I seem to hear is sadness on the wall that wouldn't mend

I can't get over getting over you
Some of the best things you care for
Are the things you never choose
Wouldn't you rather want the things you want
That make you want the things you never had
The things you never had

You will never be alone
If you find that here is home
Get your own way out of here and soar

When you see yourself in me
It isn't where you want to be
Get your own way out of here and soar

I can't get over getting over you
Some of the best things you care for
Are the things you never choose
Wouldn't you rather want the things you want
That make you want the things you never had
The things you never had
