[Verse 1] I used to hope the road would bend To lead me somewhere fine That every scar would make some sense To heal with a little time I’m afraid to say, some doors just slam Without a single word and the dreams I felt were mine turn to wonderin’ why And you can give your whole damn heart away And end up changin’ nobody’s mind [Pre-Chorus] I’m tired of pretending There’s a reason for the fall Sometimes you’re just standing In a storm you didn’t want at all [Chorus] Not everybody gets a happy ending Not everybody gets to make it home Sometimes life just takes what it wants And leaves ya to learn how to live alone Did I pray for change one too many times? got a guiding light I’ll show you I’m the best at failin’ and maybe that’s just what’s right [Verse 2] I’ve watched the years become the things I swore they’d never be I got scammers still trying to cut up pieces of me And There’s nothing wrong with wanting more Or wishin it was fair I stopped asking for help because that became a burden And this weight I carry Is too heavy for you to bear [Pre-Chorus] I’m sick of explaining Why I couldn’t make it out Waving at the ship this white flag has nothing more to talk about So It’s safe to say I did my time, it’s not for me to decide what’s right [Chorus] No, Not everyone gets a happy ending Not everybody gets to make it home Sometimes life just takes what it wants And leaves you sick of how to live alone did my best with what I had Everything I got was sad They keep tellin me to just Put it in the past But I’m still waiting in line for a good old life nowhere in sight [Bridge] So here’s to the unfinished stories The ones nobody gets to hear To the the never- meant to be’s Whose dreams just disappear I think we’re just broken people Hoping is for the weak When the ones who’r winnin’ got things to believe in But I’m cool with where I’m at Just Leavin’ [outro] Not everybody gets a happy ending And maybe it’s true we can’t survive some of us don’t get the fairytale Countin’ reasons to stay alive like it’s fucking alright I did my best with what I had Let the memories get bad If I hear “you got this” You’ll just make me mad
