Verse 1
New year’s eve, 2014
I painted my nails, i wore my highest heels
Dyed my hair, bought a new dress
Begged you to come, said i loved you
And still you didn’t show
Couldn’t believe you had
Just left me standing there
Looking like an idiot
In front of all my friends
Did it have to end like that
Pre-chorus
(ten days before new years eve
You called just to say that you love me
Ten days after i assumed you were latе
You’re posting on socials calling her “bae”)
Chorus
I too еxist on this planet
You shouldn’t’ve taken me for granted
Which of us three dodged the bullet?
Wondered today how you’re doing
I too exist on this planet
You shouldn’t have taken me for granted
Which of us three dodged the bullet?
Wondered today how you’re doing
Verse 2
You made the blood rush
In my ears, my faced flushed
My head was swimming
My eyes brimming
When i heard your piano playing
But was it ever for me?
Do you remember the promise that
I’d spend october in your cardigan?
Do you remember watching blank space in my bed?
Your coffee mug on my dash, your words in my head?
The way i teased you for your early christmas tree?
The way you swear’d you’d always look that way at me?
The way i sang on the stage at your church as you played?
The way that little ol lady told you i was great?
Do you remember how you promised i’d get paid?
Did your memories of us really just fade?
Chorus
I too exist on this planet
Shouldn’t’ve taken me for granted
Which of us three dodged the bullet
Wondered today how you’re doing
I too exist on this planet
Shouldn’t’ve taken me for granted
Which of us three dodged the bullet
Wondered today how you’re doing
Bridge
Wish i could stop missing you
Years later i can’t dismiss
I’m still chasing the high
From that mountaintop kiss
Wish my minds eye would rest in peace
But years later i can’t unsee
That midnight evening with you
Toes in the sand, ocean in view
Chorus
I too exist on this planet
Shouldn’t’ve taken me for granted
Which of us three dodged the bullet
Wondered today how you’re doing
I too exist on this planet
Shouldn’t’ve taken me for granted
Which of us three dodged the bullet
Wondered today how you’re doing
Post-chorus
Ten days before new years eve
You called just to say you love me
Ten days after i assumed you were late
You’re posting on socials calling her “bae”
A few years later i remember when
You’d complain about her, call her “just a friend”
Turns out you married the other woman
And rewrote history to keep me a mystery
Outtro
To keep me a mystery
You rewrote history
You’d complain about her call her just a friend
A few years later i remember when, i remember when
