Lyrics
[verse]
You said forever like you meant the word
Now forever's just a joke I overheard
Packed the movies, packed the songs we knew
Didn't think I'd have to unlearn you
[chorus]
So much for my happy ending
Oh, so much for the story that we were writing
This isn't how the credits should have rolled
So much for my happy ending
I guess I read the whole thing wrong
Guess I believed too long
[verse]
You laugh about it with your brand new friends
Like the story got to choose its own end
I keep replaying every word we said
Trying to find where the good parts went instead
[chorus]
So much for my happy ending
Oh, so much for the story that we were writing
This isn't how the credits should have rolled
So much for my happy ending
I guess I read the whole thing wrong
Guess I believed too long
[bridge]
Maybe endings don't need to be neat
Maybe I'll write one that's finally complete
Without you standing in the final scene
I'll build an ending of my own between
[chorus]
So much for my happy ending
Oh, so much for the story that we were writing
This isn't how the credits should have rolled
So much for my happy ending
I guess I read the whole thing wrong
Guess I believed too long
