Split Wish Songtext
von June Henry

The man I thought you were
Still haunts me bad
Speaking soft, sat with intention
Kissed me gentle, asked me questions

Now I look for the best parts of you
In the worst parts of everyone else
I′m m still so mad that he wasn't real
I′m so mad I had to take him for myself

Someone thought I was the man I thought you were
The other night on the patio
Said that's not me, but I used to know him well
At least that's what I thought a long time ago

Splitting wishes
Missin messy
Mirror kisses
You′re the devil on my shoulder
I′m the angel on yours
All I know is to be wicked
Was I ever really pure?

You said you'd put me in your pocket
Think you′d run me through the wash
I'd be entirely forgotten
Just another building block
In your tower of attention
And your misplaced big decisions
Married to your noncommitment
At the altar, did you leave it?
At the altar, did you leave it?

The girl I got to know
Still hurts me bad
I can′t spend much time alone
Or all her words just keep pouring back
Now I put all the best parts of me
Into the worst parts of people like her
So when I'm thinking to myself
I′ve run out of all of my soft words

You're the devil on my shoulder
I'm the angel on yours
All I know is to be wicked
Was I ever really pure?
