Midnight Concrete

Verse 1 I wake up tired, I go to bed crying, Everyone says I’m lazy, never trying. They called me useless, said I’d never be, So I started believing what they said about me. Then there was you, for five whole years, I loved you through my happiest and hardest tears. I told you how I felt, but you said no, Three different times, and it still hurts though. Pre-Chorus I spent so long trying to become someone new, Changing every little thing just to be enough for you. But no matter how hard I tried, you looked right through me, And maybe I was never meant to be who you needed me to be. Chorus I’m not your impossible girl, I’m not the perfect one in your world. You rejected me three times, and I still stayed, Still hoping you’d see me in a different way. But I’m tired of chasing what I’ll never be, Tired of changing myself so you’ll notice me. Maybe I’m broken, maybe I’m scared, But I’m still here, and I’m still getting somewhere.Bridge Some days the sadness gets too loud, Some days I don’t recognize myself in the crowd. But I’ll keep fighting, one day at a time, Even if your heart will never be mine.Final Chorus I’m not your impossible girl, But maybe I don’t need to be. You can dream of perfect, While I learn to choose me. You said no three times, And it broke my heart, But losing you doesn’t mean I’m falling apart. I’m still here, I’m still breathing, Still finding reasons to believe— Maybe the girl I needed all along Was me.
