Corduroy McLellan – Rear View Mirror Lyrics

Artist: Corduroy McLellan
Song: Rear View Mirror

{intro}:
True story
{verse 1}:
It all started back in 7th grade

When we were sittin’ in gym class
You were in the corner when i saw you take a glance
I didn’t think much of it ‘til you told all your friends
The fact that we were strangers had to come to an end

We started textin’; 21 questions, i didn’t mention
A relationship was not something i wanted to invest in
Kept on learning more about you thought that you were great
But all it foreshadowed was a pretty dеadly fate

We kept on talking i nеver shared my intentions
I knew that i was awkward but you might be my correction
I talked to you like we were best friends let’s get together
But in person i was cold and distant silent for forever

I wish that i could take it all back and have a redo
It was only my fault sorry things work out how they do
I pushed you away to hide the feelings i got
Never meant for this to happen now i’m thinking a lot and i say

{chorus 1}:
Am i the reason you cry
When you think of me are there tears in your eyes
Is it because of me that you no longer wanna be loved

And fill your life with all these things that are never enough
X2
{verse 2}:
A few years pass now they’re sittin’ in high school

Made some bad decisions now she’s breaking the rules
She doesn’t know why but life is looking so cruel
He’s the only one she wants and it’s killing her too
On the flipside he’s out there living the dream

The envy of them all who everyone wants to be
On friday nights he leads the team while she’s smoking the green and getting faded so sedated off the deep end it seems
The pain is just too deep trying to fix up her heart
His future looking bright while she’s left in the dark

They went down different paths once it split at the start
Wondering what might’ve happened if they’d played another part
It’s such a cold world
Matter fact a cold life

The way it grabs you twist and turns you til it turns to a fight
Now he prays to god asking him to make this thing right
But it all comes crashing down in the darkness of night and he says
{chorus 2}:

Am i the reason she cries
Did she make all of these choices with the thought of me in mind
I live with this regret, now i hate it all the time
I apologize for all the pain i left you inside

X2
{verse 3}:
It keeps her up at night
‘cause she’s constantly thinking

The pain that i feel wants to push me to the brink and
Is there a reason why i think my ship is always sinkin’
Maybe i’d be better off dead and gone like i’m lincoln
All i ever did was try to talk and now you’re gone

How you gonna act like you had had this plan all along
Disappearing act; you never had a magic wand
And the craziest part; i don’t know what was wrong
Cord, what did i do? and now you won’t return my calls

Looking everywhere for answers but i can’t find one at all
Hate the fact that you won’t tell me what is going on
So instead i gotta wonder why you’ve been silent so long
Cord, let me tell you something then i’ll be fine

You really messed me up now i’m writing these lines
But it’s hard for me to think i can’t get it off my mind
I’m sorry for whatever hope you have a great life and i say
{chorus 3}:

Yeah, you’re the reason i cry
At night i lay awake ‘cause of the tears in my eyes
It’s because of you that i no longer wanna be loved
Now i’m wasting my life doing all of this stuff
