What I Want Back is What I Was Lyrics by The Faim

Your Life and Nothing Else

2023

Today is the day
The start of a new life
Without the weight of you
Crashing down on me
I spent sleepless nights wondering where I went wrong
In reality, the lack of reality caused you to drown
Questioning what I could change
When really what needed to change, what needed to change
What needed to change, what needed to change
Was always you
Free of conviction, keep playing the victim
Path of destruction
Ruining everyone that you say you love
Keep playing the victim
To everyone that you say you love
Say you love
The path of destruction [?]
[?]
The weight of you
Crashing down on me
Easy feeling worthless
When you threw away all that you had
Like you were just some dumb kid
Who didn't know where the path would end
Easy feeling worthless
When you threw away all that you had
Like you were just some dumb kid
Who didn't know where the path would end
Easy feeling worthless
When you threw away all that you had
Like you were just some dumb kid
Who didn't know where the path would end
