the opposite

It's not like you're so special
It's not like you're the best
It's not like there's something that makes you better than the rest
It's not like I've been up all night trying to get you out my head
So why have I been feeling all these feelings in my chest?
'Cause I don't think about you, I don't wonder how you've been
And I don't see myself as someone you could end up with
I wish you would just go 'cause you're someone I'd never miss
I wish I didn't mean the opposite

I wish that I could say the things I really feel
I wish that I could just convince myself they aren't real
'Cause I know there won't be a day you feel the same
And I should just stop lying to myself
I wish I was in love with someone else

'Cause you don't think about me or anything we did
And you just carry on as if our memories don't exist
I wish I could move on but I remember all of it
I wish that it could be the opposite

I wish that you would say I'm not the only one
Dreaming of a world where you and I could be in love
But I know there won't be a day you feel the same
And I should just stop lying to myself

I wish I was in love with someone else
Someone who remembers me, someone else
Who at the very least would wish me well
And tell me I just wasn't meant for you
Even if the opposite's the truth

But I'm hoping that one day we can meet again
And I could tell myself that it all worked out in the end
But I know there won't be a day I feel that way
I wish I could keep lying to myself
That I could be in love with someone else
