“What Happened To Us” is as much about looking back on a failed relationship as it’s about being afraid of growing up.

[Verse 1]
I sat next to you at lunch
You had your back turned
Reading your magazine
I didn't want to interrupt
You looked so peaceful
In your own company
[Pre-Chorus]
Funny how we remember things
How we hold on to the good
But throw out the bad stuff
What happened to us?
[Chorus]
I was never ready for your love
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up
[Verse 2]
You were somebody to me once
But now you're a fiction
Someone that I made up
Turns out it was too much for us
And if we met in five years
Would we notice?
[Pre-Chorus]
Funny how we remember things
How we hold on to the good
But throw out the bad stuff
What happened to us?
[Chorus]
I was never ready for your love
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up
I was never ready for your love
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up
I was never ready for your love
No, I'm no child but I don't feel grown up
I was never ready, it was never meant to be
So tell me how come I still feel so messed up
[Outro]
I was never ready, I was never ready
Never meant to be
I was never ready, I was never ready
Never meant to be
