The Belle Brigade - When Everything Was What It Was

I don't wanna move on
But I don't wanna stay here
And if my life is a line
All I see are the angles
And there's a fence around my yard

Don't wanna go back in time
And I'm afraid of the future
Just wish that everything worked
How I imagine it used to

When you were happy just because
When you were angry just because
When everything was what it was

When everything was what it was
When everything was what it was
When everything was what it was

So if you're readin' my palm
And you can see where I'm going
You could be right or wrong
For me it's better not knowing

'Cause I'll be thinkin' way too much
And it will never be enough
Yeah, I'm avoiding it because

When everything was what it was
When everything was what it was
When everything was what it was

There ain't nothing worse than catching
Yourself in a lie
But then again the truth can take your life

When everything was what it was
When everything was what it was
When everything was what it was
Wish everything was what it was
Wish everything was what it was
Wish everything was what it was
