Unrequited Love Lyrics

Thought by now you would be so goddamn tired of
Always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard, learning to let go
Of something just out of reach
Something I'll never know

Can you stay? Don't go
Don't leave me all alone
I hate when my own mind plays tricks and starts to roam
My codependency gets the best of me

But through rose-tinted glasses is the world I see
(It's the world I see)
It's the world I see
You got my heart ensnared, my vision impaired
Don't act like you care when you were never there

Thought by now you would be so goddamn tired of
Always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard, learning to let go
Of something just out of reach
Something I'll never know

If I wait too long, it always feels so wrong
We're stuck on repeat, singing the same old song
In every melody you'll find a piece of me

But through rose-tinted glasses is the world I see
(It's the world I see)
It's the world I see
No, we can't be repaired, there's no damage here
Why the hell would you care when you were never there?

Your mind's a temple but it's barren
Your words familiar but so foreign
(But so foreign)
Why do we plague ourselves with familiar tells
When all we're doing is creating our own hell?
You were my cure for the loneliness
But I think it's time that I digress

Thought by now you would be so goddamn tired of
Always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard, learning to let go
Of something just out of reach
Something I'll never know

I thought by now you'd be tired of
Chasing unrequited love
Even when I'm out of breath I try to keep up
Chasing unrequited love
Oh, unrequited love (Ooh)

And if it's all the same to you
I'd like to see it through
Make amends, it depends what you wanna do
Quell the ache in my chest before it consumes you
(Consumes you)
(Consumes you)
(Consumes you)

And all the time that you've had
All the loves you let go
Did you ever feel whole at all?
What kind of puzzle is this?
There's pieces missing again
And the paint on the surface is wearing thin
And all the time that you've had
All the loves you let go
Did you ever feel whole at all?
What kind of puzzle is this?
There's pieces missing again
And the paint on the surface is wearing thin
What kind of puzzle is this?
There's pieces missing again
And the paint on the surface is wearing thin
Are we peeling it back only just to pretend
There was something there to begin with?

Thought by now you would be so goddamn tired of
Always lying awake from unrequited love
I find it so hard, learning to let go
Of something just out of reach
Something I'll never know

I thought by now you'd be tired of
Chasing unrequited love
Even when I'm out of breath I try to keep up
Chasing unrequited love
