It's My Life
3.4 Lyrics

Why did you have to leave
Expressing sadness and confusion about losing someone important

I miss you
Feeling a deep longing for the presence of the person who left

Why did you have to say
Wondering why hurtful words were spoken before the person left

I hate you
Recalling words that were said in anger that now bring regret and sadness

I know you regret
Believing that the person who left also feels remorse for what was said or done

The things you said to me
Referring to hurtful words that were spoken before the person left

Leave from this world
Expressing a wish that the person was still alive

Couldn't it have been me
Feeling guilty that they were not the one who passed away

I need you
Admitting a dependency on the person who left and feeling lost without them

Played around
Remembering happy memories of spending time with the person who left

All night and talked
Shared long conversations, possibly getting lost in time

About our life
Discussing hopes and dreams for the future before the person left

Thinking how good it would be
Reflecting on a hopeful outlook before grief and loss changed everything

Now you're not here with me now
Acknowledging that the person is gone, and experiencing the resulting loneliness

I regret the things I said to you
Expressing remorse for saying hurtful things to the person who left

Please forgive me
Asking for forgiveness, hoping for a release from feelings of guilt and shame

I know you are flying above me
Finding comfort in a spiritual belief that the person who left is watching over them

Watching over me now
Continuing to hold a belief in the person's enduring presence

Why should I be here without you
Questioning why they must go on living without the person who left

I need you to function
Admitting that they feel like they cannot cope or function as well without the person who left

Here I stand
Feeling stuck in a difficult situation and unable to move on without the person who left

Facetime liking all of her photos
Reflecting on a shared hobby or interest with the person who left

Now I've gotta do it solo
Feeling a sense of loss when realizing they will be doing things alone, without the person who left

Every day it feels like I can't go
Struggling with daily life after the loss of someone important

One second without thinking bout you
Finding it hard to have a moment without thoughts of the person who left

I cry at the memories we had
Being moved to tears when reflecting on happy memories with the person who left

Looking up at the sunset
Finding beauty in the natural world while feeling sadness, possibly contemplating the person who left

Walking by the flowers on the way to school
Noticing small details in the world and feeling the absence of someone who would have noticed them too

I wish it was my life
Longing for a different reality where the person who left would still be present
