The thing i never meant to be (incomplete)

This is a song that I have been working on for a while... usually while in my shower. it has a tune but needs to be filled out and completed.



The thing I never meant to be

I can't believe the person I've turned out to be
five years ago I'd have slapped my own face
it seems impossible that this was deep inside all along

I hear you say
you didnt raise me this way

(Chorus)
I never meant to be your sworn enemy
I never meant to be the thing that you despise
and I
I never meant to be anything to embarrass you
but I can't change
The things I never meant to be

bridge:
sometimes in life you find yourself travelling down a path
but you don't know how you got there

how can you make you way back to the place you were
when you can't retrace your steps?

and don't think that I don't notice the sudden silence that's stolen
the air now that you know
now you know
The wrinkles outline the empty space were once you use to smile at me
You use to smile at me
