lyrics

Run away
Being awake
It’s always all the same to me
It’s always all the same to me

Another day
Same mistakes
It’s always raining in my head
It’s always raining in my head

I couldn’t even say goodbye
Let me hear you one last time

It didn’t have to be that way
But sometimes life’s getting harder
Sometimes I really need u at home
It didnt have to be that way
But I swear I’m living happy
As u always ever wanted for me

I should have seen it come
And be prepared for
But sometimes dream that you’re alive
And it’s fine until I wake up

I’m living everyday
The way that you created
I hope you see me after all
So please see me after all

I’m still the good son that you raised
I miss you more than I can take

It didn’t have to be that way
But sometimes life’s getting harder
Sometimes I really need u at home
It didnt have to be that way
But I swear I’m living happy
As u always ever wanted for me
