[Verse 1]
look around my room at night
quiet walls and tired eyes
thinking “how did life get here?”
another lonely kind of year
no big love, no wedding ring
no forever, no settled things
no safe home built strong and warm
just trying to survive the storm
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave so much of myself away…
and still ended up alone
[Chorus]
what do I have to show
for all the hurt, all the roads
no real love that stayed for good
no life that turned out how it should
no house, no arms to fall into
friends fade out like people do
and sometimes late at night I feel
like none of this became real
[Verse 2]
I watched people build their lives
while I just learned how to survive
watched them find their person, place
while I kept losing mine in space
I held everyone when they broke down
smiled while I felt like drowning out
gave my heart in pieces away
just to still end up this way
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m so tired of being strong…
with nothing to land on
[Chorus]
what do I have to show
for every year I carried alone
no forever love, no steady hand
nothing worked out how I planned
people leave and time moves on
and suddenly the years are gone
and I sit here wondering why
it feels like I just survived
[Bridge]
maybe some people aren’t built for the dream
maybe life isn’t what it seems
maybe I spent so long holding on
I forgot where I belong
[Chorus]
what do I have to show
except the fact I still go on
through every loss, every goodbye
every night I didn’t cry
and maybe that’s the hardest part
still carrying this tired heart
still waking up and trying though
even when I’ve got nothing to show
[Outro]
just me…
and the life I couldn’t hold onto
Beexii
