Verse 1 I guess the puzzle piece didn’t fit, I guess when you stared at the ocean, the waves didn’t hit. I guess when you followed the directions, You never found your destination. I guess when you put on your favorite dress, It made you feel intimidating. I guess you smiled for the photograph, But something underneath was fading. Chorus You were certain that you found what you needed, Too stubborn to notice what was missing. Convincing you would be like convincing That we need four seasons. I guess you tried, then gave it up, Now you’ve got nothing to believe in. But you’ll go on living your life Like you really found your reason. Life’s so deceiving, This life is deceiving. Verse 2 I guess you read your favorite book And decided the ending wasn’t needed. I guess you saw me for what I was And saw I was wrong for all the right reasons. I guess you gave it all away To the ones who never needed it. I guess helping you before the fall Was the step you never saw me take. I guess you’ll follow down that path With the people who don’t believe your dreams, then. And maybe someday you’ll realize Not everything is what it seems. Chorus You were certain that you found what you needed, Too stubborn to notice what was missing. Convincing you would be like convincing That we need four seasons. I guess you tried, then gave it up, Now you’ve got nothing to believe in. But you’ll go on living your life Like you really found your reason. Life’s so deceiving, This life is deceiving. Bridge Something is freeing About knowing you can’t be saved. No matter what anybody does, The outcome stays the same. No more beating myself up, Wondering what I could’ve changed. You live with the version of yourself That you publicly became. Internally you’re battling Every fear you always chase, Running from the things inside you That you recognize in your face. Chorus You were certain that you found what you needed, Too stubborn to notice what was missing. Convincing you would be like convincing That we need four seasons. I guess you tried, then gave it up, Now you’ve got nothing to believe in. But you’ll go on living your life Like you really found your reason. Life’s so deceiving, This life is deceiving.
