Not meant to be

Weighing down my options, it's either anger or sadness.
Pulling out my hair, I've resorted to continued madness.
Clawing at the ground,
I wanna get away and not be found.
We were supposed to love like Juliet and Romeo,
the passion to eachother we were supposed to bestow.

Was I not good enough? Was I just not your type?
Now I lock myself away and try to make it through the night.
Did I not give enough? Was I selfish and rude?
You say you're doing this for my own good, boy what's wrong with you?
I would've been content with just you as mine.
Now I'm crumbling down, burning away and rotting inside.
Why is this happening? The tears that no one can see.
No need to apologize cuz I guess we're just not meant to be.

I'm rolling around in a black hole cuz ive got no where to be.
And now im stumbling and falling out of your galaxy.
Cuz im not wanted by you and your heartbreaker type.
I guess im just an empty can on your highway of life.
We were perfect for eachother now you've got us all rearranged.
If im not what you're lookin for, tell me cuz baby ill change

What will I do when I come to realize, that you're not worth any of my precious time.
Will I stay put just to somewhat have you by my side...
or maybe ill just walk away and move on with my life

I had gone through a break-up and realized that me and that person really didn't have much in common and were just not meant for eachother
