Here's the thing: you’re in love with a version of a person that you've created in your head
[1st Verse]
Painted a picture, I thought I knew you well
I got a habit of seeing what isn't there
Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets
When you broke my heart, I said you only wanted half of me
My imagination's too creative
They see demon, I see angel
Without the halo, wingless angel
[Chorus]
Falling, falling, but I never thought you'd leave me
Falling, falling, needed something to believe in
I thought you were the one
But it was all in my head
It was all in my head
Yeah, look at you, boy, I invented you
Your Gucci tennis shoes, runnin' from your issues
Cardio good for the heart
I figured we could work it out
[2nd Verse]
Painted a picture; I thought I drew you well
When you broke my heart, I said you only wanted half of me
My imagination's too creative
I know you're able, willin’ and able
Falling, falling, but I never thought you'd leave me
Falling, falling, needed something to believe in
I thought you were the one
But it was all in my head
It was all in my head
Yeah, look at you, boy, I invented you
Your Gucci tennis shoes, runnin' from your issues
Cardio good for the heart
I figured we could work it out
[Bridge]
Wanted you to grow, but, boy, you wasn't budding
Everything you are made you everything you aren’t
I saw your potential without seein' credentials
Maybe that's the issue
Said maybe that's the issue
Can’t hold that shit against you
Guess I did it to myself
Thought you were somebody else, you
