Never Thought Lyrics by DL One Direction

Honestly

2018

Verse 1:
Limousines, endless screams
Records broken, magazines, and
All the girls, money too
Private jets with gorgeous views
I dreamt of it every night
Told my family we'd be alright
Swore to never take it for granted
I won't, but my view has been slanted

Chorus:
Never thought, no, I never thought
Never thought, no I never thought
I'd die in the news every day
And be called selfish for wanting my way
When it comes to the words that I choose to sing
Never thought the lights would be so damn blinding
Every step I take gets dissected like a frog
Still want this life just wish I'd read the prologue

Verse 2:
Used for my money
By my friends
Used for my fame
Before a date ends
The hater's voices get so loud
That I forget how to drown them out
Bottling it in
Cause I'm still grateful
And if I don't smile
I'm deemed as hateful
Walking on eggshells is easier
But if I quit now what was all of it for

Chorus:
Never thought, no, I never thought
Never thought, no I never thought
I'd die in the news every day
And be called selfish for wanting my way
When it comes to the words that I choose to sing
Never thought the lights would be so damn blinding
Every step I take gets dissected like a frog
Still want this life just wish I'd read the prologue

Bridge:
Haven't spoke in a while
At least not publicly
Now in their eyes
The two of us are so clearly enemies
Have to clarify
Every time
She's just a friend
Friendship's not a crime
Have to clarify
Every day
I'm not selfish
Just sad today

Chorus:
Never thought, no, I never thought
Never thought, no I never thought
Never thought, no, I never thought
Never thought, no I never thought
Never thought, no, I never thought
Never thought, no I never thought
I'd die in the news every day
And be called selfish for wanting my way
When it comes to the words that I choose to sing
Never thought the lights would be so damn blinding
Every step I take gets dissected like a frog
Still want this life just wish I'd read the prologue

Spoken outro:
And no, I'm not bragging
