SOMETHING THAT I MISSED

​STORY

About the slow-burn realization that something's been off for a while — and the suspicion that you missed the moment it changed. The kind of song that writes itself when you're trying to figure out if it's you, it's them, or it's everything.

LYRICS

You don’t have to tell me lies

We don’t really have to talk at all

It feels lately we are simply marking time

When I feel, anything at all

And you’ve been looking for a reason, here it is

I’ve been searching for an opening in this world of doubt

If we’re just going through the motions with no reason

Time to learn to live with what we could not leave without

I keep my mind in the middle

I try to see it for what it is

Haunted all this time by a sinking feeling

There must be something that I missed

You’ve been looking for a reason, here it is

I’ve been searching for an opening in this world of doubt

If we’re just going through the motions with no reason

Time to learn to live with what we could not leave without

And I know, nothing stays the same

The past just fades away and only memories remain

One chance, one love, one mistake I made that I just can’t regret enough

I keep my mind in the middle

I try to see it for what it is

Haunted all this time by a sinking feeling

There must be something that I missed
