Lately, I've been more selfish than I should be
'Cause I got caught up in what you thought would've been
A better way to end this
But everything was so much easier when we were younger
'Cause all that mattered was my feet treading the concrete
I never thought that I'd lose my footing

I said I wouldn't let this go, but now you're gone.
And I wish you'd take some fault, but that's not how you were taught.
I thought I couldn't find these songs, but I had it all wrong.

So as of late, I guess I'm to blame.
Apparently you see right through me
So now all that I've got anymore
Is some leverage to settle the score
But you're still tearing up my skin
I'm not the only who sees that you got lost in all of this.

I said I wouldn't let this go, but now you're gone.
And I wish you'd take some fault, but that's not how you were taught.
I thought I couldn't find these songs, but I had it all wrong.
Stop waiting for things to change, you're the reason
That I felt this way in the first place.
Stop waiting for things to change
By the time that you're back home I'll be states away.
