lyrics

Chorus:
Sorry man but I had to
Cut ties, turn my back on you
You know damn well I don't want to
This is the hardest thing that I've ever had to do

You've always been
The natural center of attention
Like, look at me, look at me
Pretty spotlights
Every moment's mine
Every woman's mine
I was jealous 'cause it worked out every time
Never realized it symptomized such a vice

So even if you brought it on yourself
Recalling old days kills me knowing
That I didn't stick around to try to help
I guess I always thought
That there would be more time
Time for you to grow and hopefully
All of your problems would fix themselves

Chorus:

'Cause I'm a kid
I don't know the severity
Of these things, but I'm realizing
They don't fade away
I'm sorry I can't stay
In pursuit of my own life I had to leave
A family and friends with a burden too heavy
You left them no choice
You went where their voices can't carry

Even though I had to go
I hope you know
I'd never given up hope
You'd find strength in yourself in a cell
And then you got your second chance
I knew you'd prove your back on track
'Till I heard more bad news
Naivety wouldn't let me believe
All that remains is this shell
And now you're all by yourself

We thought that this would last forever
We never thought that these ties might sever
As long as we were together
Potential like no other
You were my best friend, my brother
Now we're uncovering
All these things that remained unseen
The better part of a decade
Hiding all this shit from me
Now our heads in our hands
Wondering what we could've did
To save this kid

Chorus
