Took a break, needed space

I could've begged you to stay

But if this is really what you want

Then who am I say you're wrong?

And maybe I misunderstood

I could've sworn that you said

Baby, no one knows me like you do

And now it's like I don't know you

I'm pouring tears in a papercut

You're walking away from us

Like you don't even know I

Could've been someone who loved you

Could've been sitting in the passenger side

Making you laugh 'cause another year passed

And birthdays make you cry

I could've been someone who listened

Wanted so bad just to make it alright

I could've been someone who loved you

But now I'm just someone who tried

And I tried

Different clothes, different hair

I even tried not to care

I did anything to be your type

The version of me just you liked

'Cause neighborhoods and baby names

Yeah, I thought we were close but

Maybe I was miles ahead

Believing all the things you said

I'm pouring tears in a papercut

You're walking away from us

From all that we could've been

I could've been, I

Could've been someone who loved you

Could've been sitting in the passenger side

Making you laugh 'cause another year passed

And birthdays make you cry

I could've been someone who listened

Wanted so bad just to make it alright

I could've been someone who loved you

But now I'm just someone who tried

And I tried

I tried, and I tried

I tried, and I tried

I tried
