#nowplaying: The Best Thing (That Never Happened)

"The Best Thing (That Never Happened)

by We Are The In Crowd

from album "Weird Kids" (2014)

Gosh darn, the title. I absolutely preach it. And gosh darn, the lyrics, I absolutely adore it. Especially these lines. Dear letters of the alphabet, this song is for you: 

I let you get away with thinking you're the cure.
I think I'm in too deep, it's time to pull the cord.
You like me more when you think, I'm getting bored.
I hope you're home the day I tear down the walls.

I won't settle, settle, settle, you are never gonna hold me down.
So toxic, you ain't nothin' but a prick.
I'm the best thing that never happened to you.
Never, never, never, you are never gonna live this down.
Life's too short, I can't fake it anymore.
I'm the best thing that never happened to you.

Don't you get sick of only hearing your own voice?
Talk like you're so damn tough but you're just a little boy.
You like to think you've broke the mold but now I'm sure,
You'll crack just like the rest when I break your fucking jaw.
