Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Your name used to be at the top of my screen
Now I find myself scrolling to read what you'd sent to me
And it isn't fair, no, it isn't right
I had to be the one to break our hearts deep inside
And though you may hurt when you don't hear from me
I'm silently wishing that you could see
I'd still be your friend and look back at the times
And say in the end, we tried to get it right
[Chorus]
And I wish you a better life than after me
So when you go out to find a heart that fits in yours more perfectly
Please be safe because we both deserve to be happy
[Verse 2]
And I went through the letters you thought I didn't read
And I wrote a few too, but I always hit delete
'Cause I thought that a ghost was easier to leave
But the truth is that it gets the best of me
[Chorus]
And [Chorus]
And I wish you a better life than after me
So when you go out to find a heart that fits in yours more perfectly
Please be safe because we both deserve to be happy
[Bridge]
And I swear that I'm sorry, but someone's got to look after me
But I want you to know it wasn't how it was meant to be
[Chorus]
And I wish you a better life than after me
So when you go out to find a heart that fits in yours more perfectly
Please be safe because we both deserve to be happy
