Lyrics

Verse

Derrick Harvey, you had me spinning

Thought you were the start of my new beginning

But you left me hanging like a broken swing

Now you're just a name I don't wanna sing

Oh I wrote your name in every line

But boy you ain't worth my time

Chorus

Derrick Harvey, I was a fool

Thought you were gold but you're just old school

Derrick Harvey, you're out the door

I had a crush on you, but not no more

Verse

You wore that jacket like you owned the room

Had me believing you'd light up my gloom

But turns out you're just another tune

That fades away by the afternoon

I ain't crying, I ain't blue

Just deleting every thought of you

Chorus

Derrick Harvey, who are you

Oh, wait I forgot I don't care too

Derrick Harvey, I was a fool

Thought you were gold, but you're just old school

Derrick Harvey, you're out the door

I had a crush on you, but not anymore

Verse

William King you’re in my head

You’re the spark that turns it red

Your smile’s a comet across my night

Blazing trails

Stealing light

Do you see me standing here

Or am I just thin air, my dear

Chorus

King William, oh, can’t you see

You’ve got a kingdom inside of me

Every heartbeat bows to you

King William, what do I do

Verse

You walk by like you own the sun

Every step’s a battle won

I’m just a pawn in your parade

But I’d follow every move you made

Crown of charm, throne of grace

I’m lost in your royal space

Is it silly is it bold

Do you see me standing here

Or am I just thin air, my dear

Chorus

King William oh, can’t you see

You’ve got a kingdom inside of me

Every heartbeat bows to you

King William what do I do

Bridge

You walk by like you own the sun

Every step’s a battle won

I’m just a pawn in your parade

But I’d follow every move you made

Crown of charm throne of grace

I’m lost in your royal space

Is it silly is it bold

To hope for a hand I’ll never hold

Chorus

King William oh, can’t you see

You’ve got a kingdom inside of me

Every heartbeat bows to you

King William what do I do

Verse

I see you every day you're walking by my side (yeah)

But I can feel the tension like a wave we're caught in a tide (oh)

You smile at me but deep inside you turn away (nah)

It's hard to love a boy who hates me still I stay (I stay)

Chorus

(I thought it was me) - Why can’t you see what you’ve done to me

(I thought it was me) - trapped in your heart it’s a bittersweet melody

We laugh together we share a secret world of our own

But every touch feels empty and I'm left here all alone

You talk about your future and I'm never in the frame (never)

But a glimmer of hope keeps me from walking away from your game

(I thought it was me) - Why can’t you see what you’ve done to me

(I thought it was me) - trapped in your heart it’s a bittersweet melody

Chorus

And I've seen the look in your eyes when you look past me

But I convince myself you're just not ready for what you see

I'm a fool for thinking I could make you change your mind

million different people but I'm the one you left behind

(I thought
