[Verse 1]

I've been trying to write the perfect song

I've been trying to write the perfect chorus

But everything that I do, it all just brings me right back to this

And I'm stuck, I'm not enough

Do you see me as just a crutch

Or as something you really need?

[Chorus]

If I'm just a footnote in your life

Then what the hell are you in mine?

'Cause I’ve been down for so damn long

And it still haunts me

Yeah, it still haunts me

[Verse 2]

You fell away from me into a faded memory

But we still know everything

We went back occasionally

What’s lost is better off

This hurt was never worth thе cost

All you wanted to do was talk

But you used to walk the walk, you talk thе talk

[Chorus]

If I’m just a footnote in your life

Then what the hell are you in mine?

'Cause I've been down for so damn long

And it still haunts me

If all I am was just a crutch

For you to lean and to stand on

I sure hope to God that you are still here standing

[Verse 3]

When I die remember me

Through all the smiles on my friends faces

And all the laughs that I gave them when they were hurting

When I’m gone remember me

Through all the songs that I kept singing

When I was too broken and beaten to keep going

[Chorus]

If I’m just a footnote in your life

Then what the hell are you in mine?

'Cause I've been down for so damn long

And it still haunts me

If all I am was just a crutch

For you to lean and to stand on

I sure hope to God that you are still here standing

[Outro]

Are you still standing?
