Lyrics
Drove past the diner, our old corner booth
Where you swore that you'd change, but I knew the truth
Lipstick on coffee cups, ghosts in the glass
Every time I forgave, you still let it crack
And I was the soundtrack, you were the scene
Some kind of movie, but nothing between us was real
I think I've had enough
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Always out of touch
Don't say that you were the right one
Don't say that you were the right one
'Cause I've been running, I've been running, I've been running on empty
And you've been fading, always changing, never where you should be
I think I've had enough
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Left all your records stacked up in the hall
Every scratched-up refrain that I've heard before
You say you don't mean it, but it's on repeat
And I'm done being the chorus you leave incomplete
And I was the soundtrack, you were the scene
Some kind of movie, but nothing between us was real
I think I've had enough
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Always out of touch
Don't say that you were the right one
Don't say that you were the right one
'Cause I've been running, I've been running, I've been running on empty
And you've been fading, always changing, never where you should be
I think I've had enough
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Don't go thinking this is a love song
Maybe we burned out like the marquee lights
Flickered too long, now there's nothing inside
Took all my pages, you blurred every line
But I found the ending, and I'm writing it right this time
I think I've had enough
I don't care if you hear this love song
Doesn't matter if you hear this love song
'Cause I've been running, I've been running, but I'm filling what's empty
And I've been learning, I've been turning all the wreckage to peace
I think I've had enough, and I'm done calling this a love song
This was never really a love song
