Lyrics

I’m not gunna be the one that you call home

I won't be the person you consider your home.

And I’m not gunna have the big white wedding thrown

I won't have a traditional, grand wedding arranged for me.

And I’m not gunna change

I won't change who I am; I'll achieve my goals independently.

I’ll get there on my own

I will find my way without relying on others.

And I’m just gunna be another stepping stone to you

I will merely be a temporary step or transition in your life.


Cos you won’t see me falling I’m already on the ground

I won't let myself fall because I'm already at a low point.

No you won’t hear me calling, I’m already walking out

I won't seek help; I'm already distancing myself.

And you’ll find her now, you’ll find her now, just start again you’ll find her now

You will find someone new; start over and find happiness.


I have grown to know that chaos follows me

I've realized that chaos tends to accompany me.

I try to figure out why I feel the need

I'm trying to understand why I have this urge.

To run around and burn myself out, to shoot myself down to ground

I engage in self-destructive behavior, breaking myself down.

To run from home, and shout in the crowds and cry for the girl I used to know

I run away, express myself loudly, and yearn for the person I used to be.


Cos you won’t see me falling I’m already on the ground

I'm already in a state of emotional descent; you won't witness me falling.

No you won’t hear me calling, I’m already walking out

I won't make my distress known; I'm already leaving.

And you’ll find her now, you’ll find her now, just start again you’ll find her now

You'll find a new person; restart and discover happiness again.


But I wish I could take back everything I’ve said

I regret the things I've said and wish I could undo them.

Cos I know that the truth is you wish we’d never met

You secretly wish we never crossed paths.

And I’m sorry that I don’t know how to be the one

I apologize for not knowing how to be the one you desire.

I’ll never be the one

I acknowledge that I will never be the person you want.


Cos you won’t see me falling I’m already on the ground

I'm already emotionally low, so you won't witness me falling further.

No you won’t hear me calling, I’m already walking out

I won't make my departure obvious; I'm already moving on.

And you’ll find her now, you’ll find her now, just start again you’ll find her now

You'll find a new person to love; start afresh and find happiness.
