Altered State 🇺🇸💔hero version

[Verse 1] I spent that day, on this couch wishing it away I sit here most days just thinking about you It’ll never bring you back, but it’s a comfort where I’m at There’s memories I try to drown through TV dinners and take out And all the many things I wish I could just redo And wish they got me back you [Chorus] And I pray to God it’s just an altered state That maybe I’ll wake up from And you’ll be blowing out candles on a birthday cake And we will be living in all the joys But instead you're up there partying And I’m down here battlin’ through empty noise Just a missin’ you Just a wishin’ you were here Just even for another year [Verse 2] I wish this view of my living room was One that had you sitting here It doesn’t matter, my sense of time stopped The moment my heart dropped And I hit that floor with the knock on the door [Bridge] And honestly it can get exhausting Explaining the loss of you in my life To others whose paths I’m just crossing Telling them my son is a hero that they’ll never know Cause he Lost his life years ago [Chorus] And I pray to God it’s just an altered state That maybe I’ll wake up from And you’ll be blowing out candles to a birthday cake And we will be living in all the joys But instead you're up there partying And I’m down here battlin’ through empty noise Just a missin’ you Just a wishin’ you were here Just even for another year [Outro] Still sitting on this couch... With a birthday candle and a cake, Just a wishin’ you'd wake me up from this altered state
