Not your Fantasy

Yeah…

You made me someone in your head.

But I’m not her.

Never was.

You built a world where I belonged,

Wrote every line, got every part wrong.

You saw forever in a passing glance,

Mistook my silence for a second chance.

Du hast geglaubt, ich wär dein Licht,

Doch deine Wahrheit kenn ich nicht.

You fell in love with what you made,

Not with the girl standing in your way.

You call it love, I call it obsession,

You call it fate, I call it a lesson.

Du wolltest mehr, als ich dir gab,

Doch deine Sehnsucht ist nicht meine Last.

I’m not your fantasy,

Don’t put your dreams on me.

You can’t call it destiny

Just because you can’t let me leave.

I’m not your remedy,

I’m not your therapy.

You made a movie in your mind,

But I was never playing that part in your life.

Not your girl, not your dream,

Not the person that you think you’ve seen.

Not your past, not your pain,

You won’t get to own my name.

You say I changed the way you feel,

But that don’t make your feelings real.

Du hast mich höher gestellt als mich selbst,

Doch ich bin nicht die Rolle, die dir gefällt.

You wanted answers, wanted signs,

Read too much between the lines.

Du hast gesucht, was niemals war,

And called your fantasy a scar.

You call it love, I call it projection,

You wanted control, not a connection.

Ich schulde dir kein Happy End,

Nur weil dein Herz die Wahrheit nicht erkennt.

I’m not your fantasy,

Don’t put your dreams on me.

You can’t call it destiny

Just because you can’t let me leave.

I’m not your remedy,

I’m not your therapy.

You made a movie in your mind,

But I was never playing that part in your life.

Maybe I was everything to you,

But you were never my whole world.

You saw a future in my eyes,

I saw a stranger in disguise.

Don’t call it heartbreak when I walk away,

Don’t call it love when I never stayed.

You can keep the memories,

But you don’t get to keep me.

I’m not your fantasy,

I’m finally choosing me.

You can keep your memories,

But you can’t rewrite my history.

I’m not your remedy,

I don’t owe you anything.

You had your dream, I had my life,

And now I’m leaving it behind.

Not your girl…

Not your dream…

You never really knew me.

And that’s the truth.
