Not What I Wanted Lyrics

Evan Olson Not What I Wanted

Lately there's been a change in me
and I'm not sure if I can handle it
but every day has a different way
to tear me apart just a little bit
it's seems I've been taking the long way down
to a place i really didn't wanna go
i can't explain why you pick my brain
just to tell me what i already know

It was a lonely mixed up tragedy
and it's something that i just can't seem to release

Not what i wanted, not what i need
(harmony for you and me, that's the way we want it to
be)

Deep inside where i used to hide
there's a place in need of a miracle
and people claim that they'll stay the same
but they never have and they never will

when it's a lonely mixed up memory
and it leaves me here with nothing more to believe

not what i wanted, not what i need
(harmony for you and me, that's the way we want it to
be)

You can't deny the truth wore thin, when we both know
what could have been
i know some day I'm gonna have my way

It's a lonely mixed up tragedy
that rips apart my life long dream
and a lonely mixed up memory
that keeps me down when i just want to be free

Not what i wanted, not what i need
(harmony for you and me, that's the way we want it to
be)
