Overcoming Heartbreak: Making Difficulty Seem Effortless
Lyrics
I'm not the first guy who ever lost a girlfriend
I've experienced the common pain of losing a girlfriend.
But by the way I'm carrying on
Despite the typical nature of the situation, my behavior suggests intense emotional distress.

My actions may indicate a level of emotional instability as if I've lost my sanity since your departure.
Since you've been gone
The impact of your absence is profound.
Why can't I just walk away
I find it challenging to detach and move on.
You know people do things a lot harder every day
People handle more difficult situations every day, yet I struggle to cope.
And somehow they make it look so easy
