After School Trauma Club - Best of a Bad Situation Lyrics

I'm leaving messages you'll never hear,
Words left hanging, tangled in the atmosphere.
There were warning signs that I couldn't see,
I thought love was blind, but now it's clearer to me.
The truth slips out in such awkward ways
What felt like love was just a fleeting phase
(The truth slips out in such awkward ways)
(What felt like love was just a fleeting phase)
Well we're happy in imagination
You were the best of a bad situation
You know I had the best of intentions
But I can't wear this ring of deception
I'm packing memories like broken glass,
Every shard reminds me of the past.
I'll leave this box by the door for you to claim,
'Cause after all we've lost, nothing feels the same.
I'll spill my guts to this answering machine
There's so many things I wish I would've seen
The truth comes out in such terrible ways
I could tell you that I love you
I could lie straight to your face
Well we're happy in imagination
You were the best of a bad situation
You know I had the best of intentions
But I can't wear this ring of deception
I gave you everything, but you gave me doubt-
Started seeing shadows in every word you'd shout.
Your eyes wandered long before your feet did,
And I felt the shift like a storm we both hid.
I'm done with the charade, the fake smiles we paint,
Pretending we're perfect when we're both full of hate.
I don't want you back; I don't want your lies,
I'm just tired of living this love in disguise.
Well we're happy in imagination
You were the best of a bad situation
You know I had the best of intentions
But I can't wear this ring of deception
