Let You Down
Maddison Lyrics

There was a light in you
You used to have a spark or energy about you

That was torn down to nothing
But something ripped that away and left you feeling empty

I could see it in your eyes
I could tell from the way you looked that something was wrong

And I couldn't see through
But I couldn't understand what was happening to you

All of your disguises
You were hiding your pain and putting on a front

And all your fears inside
You were consumed by anxiety and worry

I let you down
I failed to support you or be there for you when you needed me

You're not around
Now you're gone and I miss you terribly

Want you home again
I wish you were here with me

Didn't know that you were hurting
I had no idea that you were in pain

Wish that I could just rewind
I wish I could turn back time and do things differently

Never be the same
Your absence has left a void that cannot be filled

There was a pain in you
You were carrying a heavy burden

The hope was gone and dying
You had lost your optimism and positivity

But you painted on your smile
Despite how you felt, you tried to appear happy and upbeat

Now that you've left and gone
You have passed away or left me behind

It's not surprising
In retrospect, I can now see that you were struggling

How I see it every time
I am haunted by the realization of what was happening to you

I let you down
Once again, I feel guilty for not being there when you needed me most

Never be the same
Without you, my life will never be as it was before

I let you down
I feel like I failed you in some way

I let you down
My regret and remorse are overwhelming

I let you down
I wish I could go back and make things right

I let you down
But I know I can't, and that realization is crushing
