Best I Never Had (EP)

The Downtown Fiction Best I Never Had (EP) Lyrics
1.Best I Never Had

I knew you once, you never knew me then
Afraid to ever say, I wanted to be friends
And now the years have passed, you're far away
And suddenly I feel I'm not the same

The walls are breaking down
I think I'm crackin' up, I look around
Now everything's too much

And the world is spinnin' much too fast
Well, I can hardly catch my breath
And I just hope that this will last

The world is slippin' from my grasp
I'm looking 'round to find the girl I left behind
You were the best I never had

Remember when I saw you in the hall
You passed right by my stare, not noticing at all
If I'd had the guts, I'd catch your glance
But I am just the boy without a chance

The walls are breaking down
I think I'm crackin' up, I look around
Now everything's too much

And the world is spinnin' much too fast
Well, I can hardly catch my breath
And I just hope that this will last

The world is slippin' from my grasp
I'm looking 'round to find, the girl I left behind
You were the best I never had
You're the best I never had

And the world is spinnin' much too fast
Well, I can hardly catch my breath
And I just hope that this will last

The world is slippin' from my grasp
I'm looking 'round to find, the girl I left behind
You were the best I never had
You're the best I never had

You're the best I never had
I'm looking 'round to find, the girl I left behind
You were the best I never had


2.Oceans Between Us

Lyricist:Cameron Leahy

Some say that we'll never make it
I know one day we can overtake it
And then we'll say, we don't have to worry

Call me, late at night to tell me that you love me
Crying 'cause you're feeling so damn lonely
Waiting for the day when we can hold on so tight
And I'll tell you softly

There might be oceans between us
In my heart and my mind
We're gonna show 'em what we're made of

And if forever is not enough
Would you go down with me?
To the bottom of the sea

Sometimes, it's the best of memories that
I find, make me feel the worst and we can't rewind
Trapped inside the past when all I want is to hold you
And hear you, tell me
(Hear you, tell me)

There might be oceans between us
In my heart and my mind
We're gonna show 'em what we're made of

And if forever is not enough
Would you go down with me?
To the bottom of the sea

They'll tell us we're crazy and laugh in our face
They can struggle to tear us apart
Sure this horizon is hazy, we're pushing the pace
You won't know 'less you follow your heart

There might be oceans between us
In my heart and my mind
We're gonna show 'em what we're made of
(Show 'em what we're made of)

There might be oceans between us
In my heart and my mind
We're gonna show 'em what we're made of
And if forever is not enough
Would you go down with me?
Would you go down with me?


3.I Just Wanna Run (EP)

I just wanna run, hide it away
Run because they're chasing me down
I just wanna run, throw it away
Run before they're finding me out
I just wanna run

I just wanna run
I'm out here all alone
I try to call your house
Can't reach you on the phone
I'll gather up the nerve
I'm packing up my bag
It's more than you deserve
Don't treat me like a drag

I'm feelin' like I keep on talking
I'm repeating
Myself, my words lost all meaning
I keep talking
I repeat myself

I just wanna run, hide it away
Run because they're chasing me down
I just wanna run, throw it away
Run before they're finding me out
I just wanna run (run, run, run)
I just wanna run (run, run, run)

Like a game of chess
I predict your move
I think I know you better
Better than you do
I'm sick of feeling cheap
Cheated and abused
Sick of losing sleep
Thinking about you

I'm feelin' like I keep on talking
I'm repeating
Myself, my words lost all meaning
I keep talking
I repeat myself

I just wanna run, hide it away
Run because they're chasing me down
I just wanna run, throw it away
Run before they're finding me out
I just wanna run (run, run, run)
I just wanna run (run, run, run)


4.Take Me Home

Lyricist:Cameron Leahy

I'm out of love, I'm feelin' stressed
Seems I'm at my worst when you're at your best
I'm on this roller coaster
Stuck inside the tangles of my mind

So baby, could you show me what it's like?
If only you could take me home tonight
And baby, could you show me it's easy to breathe?
You made a mess of me

You always play the starring role
You could fill a room with all the hearts you stole
I'm on this roller coaster
Stuck inside the tangles of my mind
Remember what you left behind

Baby, could you show me what it's like?
If only you could take me home tonight
Baby, could you show me it's easy to breathe?

And baby, could you show me how it tastes?
When every piece of you and me erase
And baby, could you show me it's easy to breathe?
You made a mess of me

You're not making this easy
Not making this easier on me
You're not making this easier
I find it hard to believe in me

Stuck inside the tangles of mind
You made a mess of me

So baby, could you show me what it's like?
If only you could take me home tonight
And, baby, could you show me it's easy to breathe?

And baby, could you show me how it tastes?
When every piece of you and me erase
And baby, could you show me it's easy to breathe?
You made a mess of me


5.You Were Wrong

Lyricist:Cameron Leahy

Made up your mind
The room is closing in
You need to find
A place where you can run
Before you're locked down
This stuff's becoming too predictable

Give me what you got, I'll take it 'cause I
Really think I'm in the wrong direction
You're giving up on finding love
It took too long
You were wrong

We're growing up
You're scared that maybe this won't be enough
To satisfy the edge but will you make it?
You know this life will get the best of you

Give me what you got, I'll take it 'cause I
Really think I'm in the wrong direction
You're giving up on finding love
It took too long

And she said
Give me what you got, I'll take it 'cause I'm
Desperately in need of your affection
You're heading back to what you looked for all along

If you could find a way
To make your big mistake
Will it be worth it?
Well, you were searching for something
I hope that you found what you're looking for

Give me what you got, I'll take it 'cause I
Really think I'm in the wrong direction
You're giving up on finding love
It took too long

And she said
Give me what you got, I'll take it 'cause I'm
Desperately in need of your affection
You're heading back to what you looked for all along
You were wrong

Give me what you got, I'll take it 'cause I
Really think I'm in the wrong direction
(You were wrong)
You're giving up on finding love
It took too long
You were wrong

Yeah, you're heading back to what
You looked for all along
You were wrong
