Not What I Wished For

You're not what I wanted yesterday, 
but a lot can change in a day 
Any contact with you changes my mood drastic, 
good or bad depending on what you say
This isn't at all what I expected love to be like 
When I was a child it all seemed like magic 
but this just seems like a nightmare
 I willingly keep replaying 
Maybe though this is just what it's like 
And the child in me is overreacting 
I need to grow up and be miserable 
Just like everybody else around me
