I used to float, now I just fall down

I used to know but I’m not sure now

What I was made for

What was I made for?


Takin’ a drive, I was an ideal

Looked so alive, turns out I’m not real

Just something you paid for

What was I made for?

‘Cause I, I

I don’t know how to feel

But I wanna try

I don’t know how to feel

But someday, I might

Someday, I might

Single notes:

B4, C5, E4, G4

Single notes:

D4, E4, F4, G4

When did it end? All the enjoyment

I’m sad again, don’t tell my boyfriend

It’s not what he’s made for

What was I made for?

‘Cause I, I

I don’t know how to feel

But I wanna try

I don’t know how to feel

But someday, I might

Someday, I might

Single notes:

E5, G5, B4, C5, A4

Think I forgot how to be happy

Something I’m not, but something I can be

Something I wait for

Something I’m made for

Something I’m made for
