Lyrics of 'Didn't Know Better' by Ivan B

Yeah
I wonder if you think about the things that I could've been
Barely knew each other all the things we said and did
I settle in these thoughts I probably shouldn't meddle in
But you gave me a call and said I shouldn't let you in
Man it's funny, you ain't the only one with a past
You see a smile on my face and all the green on my grass
Halos and wings is what you think that I have
But what you see is an act
Everything is a mask
Don't you ever try and tell me you're too broken for me
I got pieces in the mirror I ain't willing to see
I couldn't tell you this the other day, I knew you would leave
But see you're perfect to me
There is not a thing that you need
But no matter what I tell you, girl, I swear you never listen
All you say is I don't get it
You don't know me, just forget it
I know you're broken hearted with a lot of regrets
You're tryna clean up the mess
Sewing together what's left
You said

I used to trust so easily
I used to fall for anything
But under all my boundaries
I just didn't know better
I used to have no confidence
Uncomfortable in my own skin
Deep down, way-way back then
I just didn't know better
Oh, oh, I just didn't know better
Oh, I used to know no better

Rain on your window pane, laying on your bed
Talking for hours, just a blur in the end
Emotional kids, tryna feel something again
I wrote you a text but I, never hit send
It's hard for me to tell you that I've been through it too
Like when you try to be together but it breaks you in two
When you believe in someone so much you don't know what to do
When you look in the mirror, like are you really you?
Insecurities looking for security
You give him love that you don't get like it's a charity
I don't believe in meant to be
I believe in let it be
I don't want another promise, I need clarity
So am I wasting my time?
Do you feel what I feel?
I love the things you tell me
Now tell me is it real?
Laying on her bed, I saw the tears in her eyes
I said I'm full of regrets I had to bury inside

I used to trust so easily
I used to fall for anything
But under all my boundaries
I just didn't know better
I used to have no confidence
Uncomfortable in my own skin
Deep down, way-way back then
I just didn't know better
Oh, oh, I just didn't know better
Oh, I used to know no better

Love is a drug and I can't get enough
I guess I ain't giving up until it kills me
But I do got a mask and I ain't taking it off
Cause I don't want anybody to see the real me
You ask me what's wrong and all I say is: I'm fine
You say: Don't worry, one day I know you will be
I said: How do you know?
She said: That's not how it goes
You'll never know if you don't let me feel the real thing

I used to trust so easily
I used to fall for anything
But under all my boundaries
I just didn't know better
I used to have no confidence
Uncomfortable in my own skin
Deep down, way-way back then
I just didn't know better
Oh, oh, I just didn't know better
Oh, I used to know no better
