[Verse] Had some options, took the wrong one Another late night, wrong one Know that it is what it is But it's never what it was Before I opened the door Should've walked, should've ran Should've said "See you later" I said "I'll see you again" [Chorus] No, I can't save a lifeline But I know what it's worth Every time I said "I got you" I should've got you first But you showed me how to live And then I taught you how to hurt 'Cause I had some options, took the wrong one Another late night, wrong one Know that it is what it is But it's never what it was Before I opened the door Should've walked, should've ran Should've said "See you later" I said "I'll see you again" [Verse 2] Woke up to the echo of my choices Phone full of missed calls and voices Tried to blame the night for what I did Found the truth in the mirror I hid Took the cash but lost the reason Kept the cold and missed the season Said I'd change with every sunrise Kept reliving the same old lies [Pre-Chorus] I been walking circles in the dark Trading hopes for another spark If loving's maths I failed the sum But I'm learning from what's come [Chorus] No I can't save a lifeline But I know what it's worth Every time I said I got you I should've got you first But you showed me how to live And then I taught you how to hurt 'Cause I had some options took the wrong one Another late night wrong one Know that it is what it is But it's never what it was Before I opened the door Should've walked should've ran Should've said See you later I said I'll see you again [Bridge] Now I'm tracing fingerprints of the past Trying to piece together what could last Promises like paper in the rain Trying to keep the lines from fading again If apologies could build a bridge I'd walk across and change the script But some lessons cut deeper than the skin So I hold the loss and start to mend within [Verse 3] I call it growth though it feels like scar tissue Counting scars like miles on a calendar with you Late night wisdom mixed with regret Paying dues for every promise I forget You deserved a steady hand not a ghost You deserved someone who showed up the most I learned to listen when silence spoke loud Now I fold the pride and take it down [Chorus] No I can't save a lifeline But I know what it's worth Every time I said I got you I should've got you first But you showed me how to live And then I taught you how to hurt 'Cause I had some options took the wrong one Another late night wrong one Know that it is what it is But it's never what it was Before I opened the door Should've walked should've ran Should've said See you later I said I'll see you again [Outro] Maybe time will teach me how to stay Maybe silence will show me the way I keep the memory like a lesson in my chest Hope I find a way to make it rest If I see you again I won't repeat the line I'll show up right I'll make the time Until then I carry what I learned A lighter heart a conscience burned
