Just Because

Oh, I know

You think you lost it all

But it's the start of something worse

For you and I and it's synonymous with

All the time we spend alone

Call it recovery

Actually, no

Things don't feel fine at all and now

The worst part of me has bared it's teeth

A thousand times, so please don't mind

This fatal flaw of mine

I admit I miss the way things used to be

Now I'm consumed by apathy

I know it's wrong to feel this way

But I'm still haunted everyday

I'll think of everything that was

And now I'm drinking just because

I need something to pass the time

And make me feel like I'm alright

Let it go

Don't act so overblown

With the fact that there's a part of us

We'll nevеr get to know

We're so scarеd to be

Exactly what we're turning into more everyday

If we could do it all over again

Would things turn out the same?

I admit I miss the way things used to be

Now I'm consumed by apathy

I know it's wrong to feel this way

But I'm still haunted everyday

I'll think of everything at once

And now I'm drinking just because

I need something to pass the time

And make me feel like I'm alright
