Lyrics
Keys by the door, jacket on your arm I’m leaning on the counter, keeping it calm You say you’re sorry. I say, "Don’t be dumb." We’re chewing our cheeks till the inside goes numb. I packed the grey sweater I used to steal Just acting like this isn't real. You linger a second, waiting for a fight But I kiss your cheek and keep it light. Go get the life that you’re looking for. Go be the person you couldn't be here. I want you to have it all, I swear— I just hate that I won't be there. Yeah, I want you happy, I want you free. I want you to find it, even without me. It’s the honest truth. I just hate that your happiness meant losing you. Next year, a party in a suburb I don't know Making some new girl laugh, putting on a show She gets the healed-up version of you Black coffee, one ice cube. She gets the Sunday mornings, the quiet and good. I'll double-tap the photos like I should. Playing the friend, playing along Like it doesn't kill me that you're moving on. Go get the life that you’re looking for. Go be the person you couldn't be here. I want you to have it all, I swear— I just hate that I won't be there. Yeah, I want you happy, I want you free. I want you to find it, even without me. It’s the honest truth. I just hate that your happiness meant losing you. I lied. God, I lied. I played the bigger person, swallowed my pride. But the second your headlights sweep the room I’m sobbing in the towel you left in the bathroom. I don’t want her to have you. I don’t want her to have you. Turn the car around. Why didn't you choose me? Go get the life that you’re looking for. Go be the person you couldn't be here. I want you to have it all, I swear... I just hate that I won't be there. Yeah, I want you happy, I want you free. I want you to find it, even without me. I told you to go, and you followed through. I just hate that your happiness meant losing you. I want you happy. I really do. I just hate that your happiness meant losing you.
