I knew my life wouldn't be the same
Memories just feed the pain
Realized it's me that's stained
When you left it was me that changed
But I can't understand 'cause it don't make sense
I'ma grown man why I feel like this?
A hundred proof shots can't heal my shit
I drink to the things I feel I missed
Life's too short, you left too soon
Climbing these walls I need more room
Feel like I'm fallin' back in the gloom
Tryna let go got mortgage soon
The pain might leave for a moment or two
But I know it'll be back soon
Tryna smile 'til it comes back 'round
So many thoughts that i just can't drown
You said you'd never leave me stranded
So how was I supposed to know
This ain't the way that I planned it
I never thought I'd have to let you go
Would I be wrong if I tried to smile again? Yeah
I try to be strong but the pain I hide within, yeah
Keeps gettin' the best of me
I'm shattered
There ain't no recipe for my disaster
Would I be wrong if I tried to smile again?
Be strong for the ones you love
Don't ever let them see you cry
Am I wrong for tryna be tough?
Hell I never thought heroes died
Fairytale endings are all just lies
Thought that they weren't and got hit by surprise
The truth is when you hit your grave
What I wouldn't give just to have one more day
I'd give it all up just to have one minute
Of my life now with you back in it
If you could see me right now you'd be proud
Everything you taught me is how I'm livin' right now
Too little too late, I can change me but I can't change fate
I hope you're up there lookin' down on us
Forgive me for the man I was
You said you'd never leave me stranded
So how was I supposed to know?
This ain't the way that I planned it
I never thought I'd have to let you go
Would I be wrong if I tried to smile again? Yeah
I try to be strong but the pain I hide within, yeah
Keeps gettin' the best of me
I'm shattered
There ain't no recipe for my disaster
Would I be wrong if I tried to smile again?
