Just Not For Me — Blackout Remix

[Intro] [distorted synth pulse, low guitar feedback, distant breathy female vocal] You changed overnight… But not for me. [Verse 1] I never asked for diamonds I never asked for the world Just a message in the silence Just to feel like I was your girl You made the bare minimum Feel like a mountain I should climb Said I was too emotional For wanting peace inside my mind [Pre-Chorus] So I got quiet Piece by piece Stopped reaching Stopped bleeding [Chorus] Too late You became him overnight Too late Now you know how to try The calls, the plans The patience, the proof Everything I begged for Now she gets from you You had the heart You had the key You had the fire Just not for me Too late Too late Just not for me [Post-Chorus] Just not for me Just not for me You had it in you Just not for me [Verse 2] Now you show up early Now you follow through Now you say the right things Like it’s easy for you And maybe she feels chosen Maybe she believes the show But I still hear the echoes Of every “baby, let it go” [Pre-Chorus] Funny how forever Took a second to replace Funny how your cold heart Found a warmer face [Chorus] Too late You became him overnight Too late Now you know how to try The calls, the plans The patience, the proof Everything I begged for Now she gets from you You had the heart You had the key You had the fire Just not for me Too late Too late Just not for me [Breakdown] [half-time drums, chugging guitars, screamed backing vocals] I wasn’t asking too much I was asking the wrong man I wasn’t hard to love You just never gave a damn Say it again Say it again You had it in you Say it again Say it again Just not for me [Bridge] Maybe losing me woke you up Maybe she gets the better truth Maybe pain was just the lesson That finally broke through Or maybe this was always you Hidden under apathy And I was just the one you chose To love carelessly [Final Chorus] Too late Now I see it crystal clear Too late I was never hard to hear The calls, the plans The patience, the proof You saved the better version For somebody new You had the heart You had the key You had the fire Just not for me Too late Too late Just not for me [Outro] [soft vocal over fading distorted guitar] Just not for me… That was the answer Just not for me… And now I’m free
