TILSEN - For The Art Lyrics

I didn't call you up to make it all about me
Please don't make me feel like that

I've just been reading all the things you wrote about me
I don't remember it like that

You've been making up scenarios
Filled with narcissistic hope
Saying you know better

For a long time I just didn't know
That this game of hot and cold
Held us together

I gave you my twenties
Isn't it funny
I feel like you don't even know me
You wasted my best years
On your career
Pushed aside my side of the story

So let's take it back
Take it back to the start
The lines you left out were all my favourite parts
Let's take it back take it back to the start to the start

All the details that you chose were mediocre
Just in case it didn't last

I really thought you were the angel on my shoulder
Now it doesn't feel like that

You were never gonna marry me
You just wanted somebody
To come home to
Is it sad that I can guarantee
Whoever comes after me
Will feel that way too

I gave you my twenties
Isn't it funny
I feel like you don't even know me
You wasted my best years
On your career
Pushed aside my side of the story

So let's take it back
Take it back to the start
The lines you left out were all my favourite parts

Let's take it back
Take it back to the start
Tell me you didn't just break my heart
For the art
Tell me you didn't just break my heart
For the art

Cause you kissed my forehead
And I kissed your palms
And you said forever
But something was wrong

Guess I should've known
Cause it caught me off guard
When you told me you loved me
It hit like a bomb
