What I Never Had

Let's talk hypothetical

If round two was optional

Would I run it back to you

Or would I stay

Right here where the wreckage is

Straight from your abandonment

The pain was metaphysical

The time I wasted

I could've gave all I know to someone else

I know I'll be all good here by myself

Nights like these got my mind in pieces

I'm sick and tired of chasing a feeling

I want love

But the not the kind that breaks your heart

I wanted us

But if it's gonna fall apart

I don't want you back

I don't need you bad

I can't miss what I never had

I want love

But the not the kind that breaks my heart

The opposite of temporary

Yeah, that's the kinda love I carry

I ain't about a hit and run

I make you feel the one and only

And you can check if necessary

My exes in the cemetery

I lay them down with lace and gold

Even the ones I hate the most

I hold them dear even though they put me through hell

Could've saved all that lovin' to myself

Nights like these got my mind in pieces

I'm sick and tired of chasing a feeling

I want love

But the not the kind that breaks your heart

I wanted us

But if it's gonna fall apart

I don't want you back

I don't need you bad

I can't miss what I never had

I want love

But the not the kind that breaks my heart

You can save that bullshit

Take out the emotion (uh huh)

Loving you is useless

I was dumb and clueless

You can save that bullshit

Take out the emotion (uh huh)

Loving you is useless

I was dumb and clueless

'Cause I want love

But the not the kind that breaks your heart

I wanted us

But if it's gonna fall apart
