Love Was Here
I can’t believe I ever called this my home
Everything I try to say
Makes me sound insane
Why would I go back
when there’s nothing to go home to?
I wish it didn’t end this way
You did and always will deserve more
But why would I go back
when there’s nothing to go home to
And there’s so much more that I wanted
to live beyond this
But these memories keep unfolding
In the worst way possible
I loved it here at one point
These walls have seen a few things
And I can’t just pretend like they haven’t
I can’t face this anymore
I’ve seen some rancid things
And I can’t keep pretending like I haven’t
I wish it didn’t end this way
You did and always will deserve more
But why would I go back
when there’s nothing to go home to?
