Consolation Prize

The story goes Silence is bold Three years later And the pill isn't swallowed yet I was never In your chess game Just some dust that needed to be cleared away I told myself that my pride would never fall That moving on like you did was the only thing to do Though I wonder if you ever felt this way She took your untameable heart right when I cleared the way Mister doesn't know how it hurts to know I wasn't enough That the memories were just a consolation prize Watching her life daily on social media Secretly obsessed by her aura She is all I'm never gonna be And I don't miss you No I don't need you Don't wanna hold you But what would've been Tell me what you know about it Have you ever wondered why Everybody wants you And everybody knows you In a way I should feel proud that I had you for a night But silence keeps its words Locked for only us to know We will meet again somehow Oh our paths have crossed Way too many times before Mister doesn't know how it hurts to know I wasn't enough That the memories were just a consolation prize Watching her life daily on social media Secretly obsessed by her aura She is all I'm never gonna be And I don't miss you No I don't need you I don't wanna hold you But what would've been Though this time it's all over You will lose the hold you've had on me Sometimes I'll look back on it But I won't bleed again No I won't bleed again Mister doesn't know how it hurts to know I wasn't enough Looking back it was all for the best Your loss is grand My tears are dry Won't wait around for a guy who wakes Who wakes Far too late No I won't wait around
