Wanna Be

I've been overthinking all the things I'd wanna say
If I saw you at the coffee shop we went to every day
Thinking about thinking but the words just never came
So I'm never going back
You wouldn't be there anyways
Listen to some music after thinking way too long
And I swear I never choose it but I always hear your songs
Listen and I listen I can't help but sing along
'Cause I miss singing with you
Even if I know it's wrong

Run away from the things I'm feeling
I won't say 'cause it has no meaning
Waiting for the day I replace it
I hate it but I don't hate it
No I don't want to be weird about it
All I want's to be clear with how it is
I know you're better off without me
Even if I miss you I'll make sure you're not around me

'Cause I don't wanna be that guy
Comin' in and out your life
From the day that I confessed
Kinda made your life a mess
Only seen you at your best
Ever since the day I left
And I don't wanna keep you close
If I'm hurtin' you the most
I'll try to keep my distance from you for some time
'Cause I don't ever wanna be that guy

I've been writing lyrics just to try to pay the rent
But it's kinda hard for me to even make a couple cents
Writing and I'm writing but I know that in the end
It's just another dumb excuse
To try to get you out my head
Take a break from writing and I lie down in my room
Doing nothin' isn't something that I usually like to do
'Cause nothin' isn't nothin' when I remember the truth
The reason I do anything's to get away from you

Run away from the things I'm feeling
I won't say 'cause it has no meaning
Waiting for the day I replace it
Can't take it but I don't hate it
No I don't want to get in your way but
I won't lie, it's been hard for me to face it
But it don't matter if I'm hurting
If it makes you happier then everything is worth it

'Cause I don't wanna be that guy
Comin' in and out your life
From the day that I confessed
Kinda made your life a mess
Only seen you at your best
Ever since the day I left
And I don't wanna keep you close
If I'm hurtin' you the most
I'll try to keep my distance from you for some time
'Cause I don't ever wanna be that guy

I don't wanna be someone you don't wanna see yeah
It's hard for me to know that you're better on your own yeah
I know that you're gone so why can't I just move on yeah
Sometimes I wish that I could see you
Sometimes I think I really need to

Run away from the things I'm feeling
Can't say that it has no meaning
By now I should know the answer
It don't matter but if it matters
Then I won't say anymore about it
I won't wait for the words to fall out my mouth
I'm gonna leave you alone for now

'Cause I don't wanna be that guy
Comin' in and out your life
From the day that I confessed
Kinda made your life a mess
Only seen you at your best
Ever since the day I left
And I don't wanna keep you close
If I'm hurting you the most
I'll try to keep my distance from you for some time
'Cause I'm not ever gonna be
