I'm not even a replacement

'Cause there's nothing to replace

I was just a mere distraction

Till you found a better place

In your soul that's full of bridges

In your heart not built for me

I was hanging from the scaffolds

Ignoring treachery

I was just perspective

And I was just a fling

I was just the pillow where you once
Asked me to sing
A song that reminded you of him

A song that reminded you of him

At first I was exciting

At first I felt brand new

A breath of air so fresh and clean

You didn't know what to do

But inside you were hurting

Inside you were confused

You want to love another
To show another what they'd lose

I was just transition

An edit if you will

Until the man you left before me
Gets your love once more to steal

'Cause in the end he'll chase you
So terrified you left

And then you'll take him back
With his tail between your legs

I was just perspective

And I was just a fling

I was just the pillow where you once
Asked me to sing
A song that reminded you of him

A song that reminded you of him

Just let him go

To let me in

For I can never replace him no no no
Just let him go

To let me in

For I can never replace him

I was just perspective
Yeah I was just a fling

I was just the pillow where you once
Asked me to sing
A song that reminded you of him

A song that reminded you of him

A song that reminded you of him

A song that reminded you of him
