Lyrics: Denton Oliver
Now I'm on my own, but I can't say that it's been better since you've gone
Wrote a letter, apologize about how wrong
I was to you, I was to you
(Now I'm on my own)
I don't know how to behave
Been writing out the way I feel, soon I'll fill up this page
Last night I drank some whiskey, tryna fill up the space
It still burns, just like looking at those pictures we save, from trips to Mexico
Know your body head to toe, everything I did you always put up on a pedestal
Late night conversations, about our dreams an the future that we share
What out kids would look like, I guess we'll never know
This all got me messed up, overcomplicated
You said that this all too much, I overcompensated
I guess I got scared from the baggage in my past
And then blamed you for my problems, that I understand we're not related
I became an asshole, you wanted better things
Wish I could call and say I'm sorry, but you'd let it ring
Sometimes don't wanna hear your side, 'cause I bet it sting
So I just close my eyes, and lay down in my bed and sing
Now I'm on my own, but I can't say that it's been better since you've gone (since you've gone)
Wrote a letter, apologising about how wrong
I was to you, I was to you
Now I'm on my own
It's like, I keep wondering if I've been too hard
See it's not just you that's stuck with this broken heart
And yeah you had some baggage in your past
And I hate that we struggled communicating right from the start
But, I had some baggage too
I guess I hid it, never truly opened up to you
Always expecting perfection, I had your spirit broke
The more you hurt, the more the space between us only grew
I'm such a hypocrite, miss our conversations
How'd I let a little space become a separation?
Not saying I forgive you, but I'm having realisations
Maybe some of this blame, could be pointed back at me
I can barely even sleep, I see you calling
By the time I wipe my tears and picked up, started talking
You already hung up, damn, look at what I'm causing
Threw my phone, and close my eyes, the silence just feels calming
Now I'm on my own, but I can't say that it's been better since you've gone
Wrote a letter, apologising about how wrong
I was to you, I was to you
