Destiny Girl
Adam Richman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I didn't mean to scare you and
I didn't mean to seem so weird
Made a big mistake this morning
If you're scared, it's what I feared

Do you think that's cool
Do you think that's all right
Well you're taking everything you feel it is
Everything of mine

I guess the game is over
It was so unfair
No longer can I play the half that's
Pretending not to stare
I know it's not your loss and
I know you don't care
I just get so fucking weak
Every time you're there

The truth in fate of which I don't believe
Destiny's the force which makes me leave

Insomnia again another
Side effect of caffeinated drink
I can't afford each opportunity
Where I can't help but think

It's not the same anymore is it
It doesn't feel the way it used to
Do you miss the way we saw it?
'Cause I sure as hell miss you

You think it's cool
That you thought about you
But what you don't understand is what
You weren't supposed to do
And I know you know that
You put me through hell
And I forgive you 'cause your not forgiven
No you're you as well

And I can't forget the way we saw it
I can't escape that day




And I can't forget the feeling I had to lose
Not after I got it that way
