i should’ve guessed

When I was a kid I played pretend so often

I started believing my own games

When I was a kid I read so many works of fiction

I started believing what they'd say

And then I met you with those eyes

Spinning treetops in July

And I swore that I recognized you

From a past life

Where we never got it right

But I should've guessed

It would happen like this

Anyone with common sense could see it

I should've guessed

I'd be crying in my kitchen

While you're busy kissing

Somebody I can't compete with

And we both know I can't make it even

I probably needed a reality check

And now I've got one

So I really should've guessed

And I know I tend to over-romanticize moments

Bottle them up and hide them away

Yeah, I know I tend to try to stay in that slow motion

But nothing holds you these days

Cause she's a golden summer sky

And I'm an ocean that's far too deep for you to dive

And I should've guessed

It would happen like this

Anyone with common sense could see it

I should've guessed

I'd be crying in my kitchen

While you're busy kissing

Somebody I can't compete with

And we both know I can't make it even

I probably needed a reality check

And now I've got one

So I really should've

Guessed this

Obsession

Was only messing

With my head

I should've guessed

It would happen like this

Anyone with common sense could see it

I should've guessed

I'd be crying in my kitchen

While you're busy kissing

Somebody I can't compete with

We both know I can't make it even

I probably needed a reality check

And now I've got one

So I really should've guessed
