"One Before The One" lyrics

Would've been really cool to love you
If you'd given me the chance
Instead you strayed me along for 6 whole months
Like I'm some kind of experiment
Would be you really good to know you know
What's that version like
Does he ever look back
Does he ever feel bad for leaving me behind

It's like I almost get it then somehow
I fuck it up and lose it
I don't really think I'm the problem
But I've got no way to prove it

So go ahead and break my heart and
Never finish what we started
Like I'm good until I'm not
When your training wheels come off
I'm having trouble getting past this
I'm only perfect if I'm practice
Just slightly not enough
Always the one before the one

Maybe this is just my purpose
To make you realize
Exactly who and what you want
That must be nice to find

It's like I almost get it then somehow
I fuck it up and lose it
I don't really think I'm the problem
But I've got no way to prove it

So go ahead and break my heart and
Never finish what we started
Like I'm good until I'm not
When your training wheels come off
I'm having trouble getting past this
I'm only perfect if I'm practice
Just slightly not enough
Always the one before the one

I see your photos on the internet
Yeah, he's got the same face but he's not the same man
I can't help but think that I could have had a life with that
Cause
I'm having trouble getting past this
I'm only perfect if I'm practice
Just slightly not enough
Always the one before the one
