"The One You Wanted" lyrics

Out of all the things
I've given up to break your heart
The poetry is the worst part
And I don't know who's better off
I don't feel so smart
But I've taken every piece apart
Now I could be a work of art
Leaning on your windowsill

Say what you wanted
Can't help, uh-huh

There's a marching band
That you can't hear, but I can
So I need you to hold my hand
Maybe put on a video
Thought it'd be enough
Getting rid of all the rotten stuff
Now I'm hearing four different songs at once
And I'd rather not be alone

Say what you wanted
Can't help, uh-huh

I tried to be the one you wanted
I tried to be the one you wanted
I tried to be the one you wanted
I tried to be the one you wanted
