Lost In Editing by Albert Hofstetter

after a week of crafting and tweaking this is the best i could come up with. i hope you like it!

lyrics:

i nearly fell apart
i nearly let it get the best of me
the failure that i was
you constantly remind
you'll never let me forget

the truth i with-held
the way it shattered your world
the way i shut you out
i never let you all the way in
we were never quite right

our stars never cross'd
no fairy tales, no storybooks, no happy endings
the story sometimes gets lost in editing
and sometimes "happily ever after" never even factors in

so quit calling me
quit trying to be the one
we had our chance
we blew it, now let's move on

the heart you broke
the pieces somewhere in my chest
i can't repair, i can't repress
this bitterness and lonliness
this mess you've made, this mess that i've become

our stars never cross'd
no fairy tales, no storybooks, no happy endings
the story sometimes gets lost in editing
and sometimes "happily ever after" never even factors in

so quit calling me
quit trying to be the one
we had our chance
we blew it, now let's move on
