Turning Out, Pt. ii Lyrics
[Verse 1: Ryan Met]
I am not chosen, or that unique
Honestly, you were and you chose me
Maybe I fucked up everything
Is this how it feels to be blue?
You said you'd love me, no matter what
You said you'd love me, is that what I loved?
All of these choices messed me up
And everyone's mean, except you
[Chorus: Ryan Met]
I think I probably wasn't in love with you
I think I probably loved the idea of you
And though I may be missing the feel of you
I think I probably wasn't in love with you
I said it 'cause I no longer wanna hurt
I said it back to you 'cause you said it first
And though I may be wishing it wasn't true
I think I probably wasn't in love
I wasn’t in love with you
[Verse 2: Ryan Met]
I was too worried how we'd end up
I wasn't looking and you grew up
Now I'm here writing this dumb song
'Cause I can't even tell you the truth
[Chorus: Ryan Met]
I think I probably wasn't in love with you
I think I probably loved the idea of you
And though I may be missing the feel of you
I think I probably wasn't in love with you
I said it 'cause I no longer wanna hurt
I said it back to you 'cause you said it first
And though I may be wishing it wasn't true
I think I probably wasn't in love
I wasn't in love with you
[Outro: Ryan Met]
This is gonna break your heart
I'm so sorry, yeah, I know
This is gonna break your heart
Is this all that life's about?
Trying to love how you turn out?
I don't love it much at all
This is gonna break your heart
I'm so sorry, yeah, I know
This is gonna break your heart
Is this all that life's about?
Trying to love how you turn out?
I don't love it much at all
I don't love it much at all

What did AJR say about "Turning Out, Pt. ii"?
There were two that I wrote without Jack, “Turning Out Pt. ii” and “Dear Winter”. For some reason, the ballads, the emotional stuff, we can’t do together, I just have to do it on my own… something about “Turning Out Pt. ii” didn’t have the same impact as me singing, so I gave myself a song on the al...
