​​wish it was me lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought we were getting on quite well
I thought that we were going somewhere
Strung me along, oh, you had options
But you got my full attention
No, that ain't fair
I guess it means I ain't that special
It's a shame I really thought we had potential
Could see us going the distance
You wanted somebody different

[Pre-Chorus]
Mhm, there's nothing worse than saying that you want someone
To find out they don't want you, it was somebody behind you

[Chorus]
So what do they have that I don't?
And what do they do that I won't?
Watching them stand where I wanna be
I'm kinda sad, I wish it was me
What did I do that's so wrong?
Hate that you lead me on and on
Why did you hold me knowing you'd leave?
I'm kinda sad, I wish it was me

[Verse 2]
I'm so ashamed for feeling like this
Envy's a curse I'm fighting
'Cause you chose something new and exiting
And now I'm crying
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause there's nothing worse than saying that you want someone
To find out they don't want you, it was somebody behind you

[Chorus]
So what do they have that I don't?
And what do they do that I won't?
Watching them stand where I wanna be
I'm kinda sad, I wish it was me
What did I do that's so wrong?
Hate that you lead me on and on
Why did you hold me knowing you'd leave?
I'm kinda sad, I wish it was me

[Bridge]
I wish it was me who got the call
I wish it was me, I gave it all
I don't understand how you can't see me here
You used to see me
I wish it was me, I hate to lose
I wish it was me, I'm so confused
I don't understand how you can't see me here
You used to see me

[Chorus]
So what do they have that I don't?
And what do they do that I won't?
Watching them stand where I wanna be
I'm kinda sad, I wish it was me
What did I do that's so wrong?
Hate that you lead me on and on
Why did you hold me knowing you'd leave?
I'm kinda sad, I wish it was me
