What We Could've Been
Never puttin' my whole heart into a woman again
'Cause that messed up my world, think of what could've been
And I'll never get back all the time we had spent
Yeah, I'll never get over what we could've been
Yeah
Conversations start to disappear and fade away
Takin' shots of alcohol to numb the pain away
All the problems and the stress becoming more apparent
Asking if we maybe could just have us a good day today
And I'm thinkin' that, just maybe, I ain't matter much
'Cause all our conflicts with each other blow to ash and dust
Got me scratchin' through my scalp to ask if I'm enough
Or maybe I'm the only dealer in this game of bluffs
Now you got me overthinkin' all the things you did
Got me watchin' all the red that's blowin' in the wind
But all the red looks kind of yellow when you share a bed with someone that
You'd never think would deal you any pain again
Girl, you know that I can't drive, but I'd still ride or die
Girl, you think that I don't care, but you still on my mind
Girl, you thought that I could see all through the shade you dealt to me
But you forgot that I had told you that I'm half blind
Never puttin' my whole heart into a woman again
'Cause that messed up my world, think of what could've been
And I'll never get back all the time we had spent
Yeah, I'll never get over what we could've been
(We could've been)
Netflix and chill, had us poppin' pills
And hangin' over 'til we hangin' all our clothes on the rail
Just please stay close to me, never go O.D.
'Cause all my exes either dead or livin' overseas
Girl, you know that the friendzone is painful to me
Just run it back or get lost, it don't matter to me
Time is money, and I'd spend another dime just to get by
Or maybe spend a dollar like a vending machine
Put a quarter in the slot and you can keep the change, you need that
Bring it back, to the way that it was way back
When you told me that you need some love
And we were pillow-talkin' all night long, bring it back
Then you went right back home, and we talked on the phone
Conversation's gotten deeper since the last we spoke
Girl, you got me messed up, buried me in soot
Now I'm broken deep down, and I'm
Never puttin' my whole heart into a woman again
'Cause that messed up my world, think of what could've been
And I'll never get back all the time we had spent
Yeah, I'll never get over what we could've been
'Cause that messed up my world, think of what could've been
And I'll never get back all the time we had spent
Yeah, I'll never get over what we could've been
Yeah
Conversations start to disappear and fade away
Takin' shots of alcohol to numb the pain away
All the problems and the stress becoming more apparent
Asking if we maybe could just have us a good day today
And I'm thinkin' that, just maybe, I ain't matter much
