I’m counting parking lot talks, smashed alarms, late fevers like debts you’ll never pay. Do you even know what went past you, or did you let it out like spare air? [Chorus] Say it mattered, say I’m wrong. Say the time was yours to lose. But all we did was waste ourselves— all we ever let go was us. [Verse 2] I wish I didn’t care this ugly, but it sticks against my teeth when I swallow it. Whatever game you weren’t playing, I was breaking myself to win from the start. And now this truth won’t slip by clean: I think I loved you when you didn’t. [Chorus] Say it mattered, say I’m wrong. Say the time was yours to lose. But all we did was waste ourselves— all we ever let go was us. [Bridge] I’d tear myself down to prove it, and you’d just watch me fall. Truth is, I built my pride on not needing you— too late to lie about it now. [Final Chorus] Say it mattered, say I’m wrong. Say the time was yours to lose. But all we did was waste ourselves— all we ever let go was us. And I still need you to say it out loud— all we ever let go was us. [end]
