I can’t blame you for everything
That goes wrong in my life
But somehow I always do
Maybe it’s because
Every thought I ever have
Starts and ends with you

You missed all my firsts
And all my seconds
I don’t even know if you’re still living
You don’t know how that is

I hate myself
For still caring
I hate myself
For not being daring
You probably could have done it

Everything
I can’t work up the courage to do
You would have taken the plunge
There’s only me holding onto you
Everything
I can’t say
You would have said
Nothing would have stopped you
Until you found me dead

I need to stop remembering
Because then I’ll fall apart
Now knowing
I can’t feel my heart beat
Because I gave you that part
Of me

My arms wrapped myself
Like I used to hug you
My tear drops falling faster
You would have laughed at me too

That night
The last one
Forever on my mind
I didn’t even know
We were out of time

Everything
I can’t work up the courage to do
You would have taken the plunge
There’s only me holding onto you
Everything
I can’t say
You would have said
Nothing would have stopped you
Until you found me dead

Everything
You always
Were better
Than me

Everwhere
You excelled over me

Your bad habits
Could eat mine
Your grades
I couldn’t outshine

Everything
Good and bad
You could do
Still
There’s only me holding onto you

There’s only me

Everything
I can’t work up the courage to do
You would have taken the plunge
There’s only me holding onto you
Everything
I can’t say
You would have said
Nothing would have stopped you
Until you found me dead

Nothing will ever stop this
From replaying in my head
There’s only me holding onto you
Even if you’re dead
I never forget anything.
