Story Behind The Song
The song came from a friend's story. She and this guy had obviously had feelings for each other a long time but lived in different cities in Florida so they didn't see each other much. He finally admitted his obvious feelings after knowing each other about a year and a half. A short week later, he told her he liked someone else and then disappeared. However, he got the short end of the stick because he only lasted with the other girl a couple days.
Song Description

Lyrics
You, it all it began
Summer of last year, when we met
In a place, separate from
The world long enough, to fall into this
And just four short months ago, we returned
For me to find that maybe, I wasn't so crazy after all this time
Pre-Chorus:
All it took was just one night
For you to take what we had built
And throw it aside
Chorus:
Oh, look at me
Oh wait I forgot that
You won't see anything of this mess you made
But that's okay
Cause you see I found out that
You weren't quite what you led me to believe
Turns out that she's already gone
So how do you feel now?
I asked you what the difference was
You said she was here but guess what, I wasn't missing
And what a surprise,
cause you took all this time to say how felt but just a week to change your mind
Tell me what you thought I'd say
Cause I'd spent so much time waiting on you
And just when you let me know the truth
You took it all back, you took it all back
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Maybe you decided I just wasn't worth the wait
So why'd you take so long to say what you needed to say
I hope you're happy with your guitar in your room all alone
It's all you cared about anyways, this one thing I know
And now I'm going round saying words I shouldn't say
Cause it just wasn't supposed to turn out this way
And now it'd just be nice for you to come apologize
But I know that won't be happening anytime soon
Anytime soon
Chorus
