I've been contemplating every word you said

I can't get out of bed, I'm stuck in my head

Take a deep breath, try to get myself dressed, but I'm too far gone again

You helped me see the good in me

You extinguished the flame we ignited together it used to burn so bright

Now it just withers, a lonely ember left to brave the night

I tried so hard to make you see, I'd give my all if you'd believe

It's not that I think I'm perfect, I'm not, but what we had is all I got

As life rolls by

I'm stuck in the past

My scars still last

But this too shall pass

I spent so many of my days going down to that place where we used to lay

Under the stars at night, we'd dream about our future beneath the moonlight

Now it's just a figment of the past, like a polaroid drenched in kerosene with a match

I've never seen one burn so fast my whole life disappeared with one quick flash

And I've been going through some things

I tried to show you but you wouldn't believe

Or maybe you just wouldn't care

But what's the point anyways your not even there

And when I think I've finally broken free your grip returns and wraps its arms around me

I need you to see I can't even fucking breathe

I need you, but you don't need me

I need you, but you don't even want me

I need you, but you'll never need me

I need you, but you're better without me

You're better without me, it's true

As life goes by

I'm stuck in the past

My scars still last

But this too shall pass

I've been contemplating every word you said
