What I Wanted Lyrics by Strays of the World

Chaos All

2022

Who's idea was this?
I bet it was mine?
Another day, another broken heart
I guess I'll have another glass of wine
I only have myself to blame
Nah... ‘Cause this is what I want
'Cause you're gone
And I'm left behind
Now's the time to say goodbye
And that's fine
That's fine
Cause this is what I wanted
Looking back at what we had
Bad blood boils to the point that it was bland
Nothing earth-shattering, Nothing Bright
Now that you're weighing me down
I can reach new heights
Do you remember
The time whеn I asked you if you loved me
You didn't rеspond
No wonder this is where we are
'Cause you're gone (You’re Gone)
But I left you, you didn't leave me behind
Now's the time to say goodbye (Bye-Bye)
And that's just fine
Cause this is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
This is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
You didn't do this to me (this was my idea)
This is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
Right?
You'll never read this letter
Wouldn't give you the satisfaction
I burned everything that was yours
But that's better than inaction
'Cause you're gone (You’re Gone)
And now I'm leaving you behind
Now's the time to say goodbye (Bye-Bye)
And that's fine
Who's idea was this?
Oh yeah, it was mine
Cause this is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
This is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
You didn't do this to me (wouldn't give you the satisfaction)
This is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
'Cause you're gone
Cause this is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
And now I'm leaving you behind
This is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
Now's the time to say goodbye
You didn't do this to me (this was my idea)
And that's fine
This is what I wanted (this is what I wanted)
