Something About You
State Champs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You’ve never seen me cry, but I’ve done it
Maybe told a lie, but who doesn’t?
Been a year now since you left and I stayed
Time is moving, yeah, it goes just one way


Could be holding me back
But I can’t change the past
You made me so cold
So I’ll let you know


I can’t seem to forget about you
I - maybe now I gotta live without you
Memories are coming down on me
I don’t wanna believe that there’s an end to the dream but
I just know that there’s something about you


Somedays I’m not alright, but I fake it
It’s one day at a time, and we’ll make it
That’s just the path we ended up on, baby
Somedays are heavy, but we’re doing ok


I can’t seem to forget about you
I - maybe now I gotta live without you
Memories are coming down on me
I don’t wanna believe that there’s an end to the dream but
I just know that there’s something about you


We lived, we loved
We kissed on every corner
Then came mistrust
Maybe I should’ve warned her
Counting down the years
Holding back the tears


I can’t seem to forget about you
I - maybe now I gotta live without you
I can’t seem to forget about you
I - maybe now I gotta live without you
Memories are coming down on me




I don’t wanna believe that there’s an end to the dream but
I just know that there’s something about you
