Lyrics

I'm pretty sure I saw you out with some other guy in the back

I observed you with another person in the background

Tell myself it was you

I convince myself it was you

So I would sleep right through it

To avoid the pain, I pretend it didn't happen

If I don't, I'll see the ghost of you behind my back

Fearing the haunting memories if I don't ignore it

It's impossible, it's unbearable

The situation is difficult and overwhelming

But I'm gettin through it

Despite the challenge, I am coping

I burned all the notes that you left me

I destroyed the letters you wrote to me

But can't throw away the ashes

But I can't discard the remnants of our past

I gave away all of your jackets

I gave away your clothing items

But can't throw away the patches

Yet, I can't let go of the memories attached to them

With a little help from my friends

Supported by friends, they'll stay with me until the end

They'll stick with me til the end

Friendship provides solace during difficulties

But none of them get me like you do

No one understands me like you do

I burned all the notes that you left me

I destroyed the letters you wrote to me

But can't throw away the ashes

Yet, I can't discard the remnants of our past

Cause they're all I have left of you

The ashes symbolize the only connection I have left with you

Now we're screaming your name out the back of Nikol's car

We express your name loudly from Nikol's car

Something 'bout the way the air hits your face it feels like I'm flying

The sensation of the wind feels liberating, like flying

And for a moment I forget why we ended up like this

For a moment, I forget the reasons for our current state

For a reason, I believe it

Believing there's a purpose for our situation

I'm getting through it

I am managing to cope with the challenges

At least I can admit it

Admitting the difficulty but moving forward

I burned all the notes that you left me

I destroyed the letters you wrote to me

But can't throw away the ashes

Yet, I can't discard the remnants of our past

I gave away all of your jackets

I gave away your clothing items

But can't throw away the patches

Yet, I can't let go of the memories attached to them

With a little help from my friends

Supported by friends, they'll stay with me until the end

They'll stick with me til the end

Friendship provides solace during difficulties

But none of them get me like you do

No one understands me like you do

I burned all the notes that you left me

I destroyed the letters you wrote to me

But can't throw away the ashes

Yet, I can't discard the remnants of our past

Cause they're all I have left of you

The ashes symbolize the only connection I have left with you

Cause they're all I have left of you

The ashes are the sole reminder of our relationship
