# Living With Regret
**Verse 1:**
Another sleepless night, staring at the wall
Thinking 'bout the words I never said at all
The chances that I missed, the roads I didn't take
Now I'm paying for each choice I didn't make
It's hard, but should I let it go? My soul?
You know I'm drowning in the undertow
Of all the things I can't undo
The ghost of me that never grew
**Chorus:**
Living with regret, it's a heavy crown to wear *(crown of thorns)*
Don't tell me that you'd forget *(lest you forget)*
All the moments hanging in the air
Living with regret, it's a shadow on my soul *(crown of thorns)*
Don't tell me that you'd forget *(lest you forget)*
When the past won't let you go
**Verse 2:**
I see the person that I could have been
In every mirror, every might-have-been
The love I pushed away, the dreams I left behind
They're carved into the corners of my mind
It's hard, but should I break these chains?
You know I'm standing in the pouring rain
Of all my yesterdays
Lost in this endless maze
**Chorus:**
Living with regret, it's a heavy crown to wear
Don't tell me that you'd forget
All the moments hanging in the air
Living with regret, it's a shadow on my soul
Don't tell me that you'd forget
When the past won't let you go
**Bridge:**
Maybe there's a way to find some peace *(lest you forget)*
Maybe all this pain will find release *(crown of thorns)*
But right now I'm just trying to breathe *(lest you forget)*
In this space between who I am
And who I used to believe I'd be *(crown of thorns)*
**Final Chorus:**
Living with regret, but I'm still standing here *(crown of thorns)*
Don't tell me that you'd forget *(lest you forget)*
How it feels to disappear
Living with regret, but maybe I can grow *(crown of thorns)*
Don't tell me that you'd forget *(lest you forget)*
Sometimes you've got to let it go
**Outro:**
It's hard, but should I try again?
You know this isn't how it ends...
