should have (feat. Rachel Shah)

Oh this love, it's not for smiles
It's for scripts where the poet lies
A happy verse, it's beyond my reach
Our ship has sailed into the sea
You and me, we're heading down
You can swim but I'm left to drown
And I'm left to drown

Oh our love, it made me smile
But you don't see how it was my life
A choice I made, for no one but me
Is it so wrong to be free
I hope you know I loved you so
When it only hurts you need to let it go
You need to let it go

I should have let you go
You need to let it go

I gave my all, all of me
My worn-out soul, just couldn't be
I wish I'd been the one that lied
Cause it's so hard to be the one who cries
I thought you were the one I knew
But love just works for a few

Don't you know what I've been through
I know you'd cry because i wanted you
It hurt so much to see you hurt
To remember how I drew first blood
Tired of feeling cruel, I'm not all bad
I've made mistakes, but it's all I have
I'm all I have

You're all I had
I'm all I have

Why did you take it all away
I didn't mean to, i thought we'd find a way
You mean me you thought for me
Don't forget how you agreed
I can't do this, I need to breathe
You're not alone, but you're all you see
Leave me be, let me go
Look around I did that long ago

Oh
