Ifyou`rehappywithsomeoneyoudon`thavetowaitforher
tomakeyouhappybeforeyou`retrulyhappy.



You know me, I used to get caught up in everyday life.
Tried to make it through my day so I could sleep at night.
Tried to figure out my way through the maze.
Of rights and wrongs, but like you used to say,
Nothing feels like it`s really worth it.
Forget perfect, I`m trying not to be worthless
Since I last saw you I`ve been looking for a purpose.


Listen, it`s like poker you can play your best.
But you got to know when to fold your cards and take a rest.
Know when to hold your cards and hold your breath,
and hope that nobody else is stacking the deck because.
I don`t need to tell you that life isnt fair, it doesn`t care.
It arbitrarily cuts off your air, and like you, I want someone to say its okay.


I`m no hero, you remember how i was, you know.
All i ever did was worry, feeling out of control.
To the point where everything was going end over end,
I`m spinning around in circles again.
This is where you come in.
All of this to explain to you why I had to separate myself away from yesterday`s life.


Please remember this isn`t how I hoped it would be,
But I had to protect you from me.
That`s why I slipped out the back before you knew I was there.
I know you felt unprepared,
But every single time I was around I just bring you down.
And I could tell that it was time to be scared.
That`s why i slipped out the back before you knew I was there.
And I know the way I left wasn`t fair,
I didn`t want to be around just to bring you down.
I`m not a hero but don`t think I didn`t care.
