Life Out of Context

from Life Out of Context by Wasted Heart

about

I wrote this song in 2016 while I was still living in San Francisco. It's about that feeling of living someone else's life in the eyes of another. Have you ever had memories of someone and then met someone else with their same name? And no matter how illogical it is to think they're the same person, you sort of can't help but project those memories — good or bad — onto that person. Well, yea, that's "Life Out of Context." I hope you enjoy it.

lyrics

I'm the one who ruins all your photos
The one stupid answer
To the one dumb question you never asked
I am the one just steps behind you
The one and only reason
That you never look back

I am the face of that someone else you hate
Don't get to know me, I'm not worth the wait

My life, my love
My love, my heart
Is out of context

I'm the one contact left overnight
The one longest days last sigh
The one thing that you try, but never get right

I am the face of that someone else you hate
Don't get to know me, I'm not worth the wait

My life, my love
My love, my heart
Is out of context
And everything I've said
And everything that I've done
Is just a fucking regret

I'm the one

My life, my love
My love, my heart
Is out—
And everything I've said
And everything that I've done
Is just a fucking regret
