Man Thats Never Known You
Unveiling Heartbreak: Zach Bryan's Soulful Reflections
Lyrics
I miss the time you loved me when you actually did
I miss the time when you genuinely loved me
When I was just a wild haired messed up kid
Reflecting on a past when the singer was a rebellious, unkempt youth
You told me that I smell like Pabst and spirits
You acknowledged my association with alcohol and a carefree lifestyle
You'd give anything at all to be anywhere near it
You would do anything to be close to that carefree essence
You grow so fond of things meant to be free
Attachments to things meant to be free can lead to pain
What if letting go is what's killing me
Contemplating if letting go is causing personal suffering
Never felt this beat down before
Expressing an unprecedented level of emotional distress
Soon as I'm back up I'm coming back for more
Despite hardships, there's a determination to face challenges repeatedly
And I hope you find, whatever it is you need
Hoping the person finds what they need and moves on
Leave it behind, the wreckage of you and me
Encouraging leaving behind the ruins of their past relationship
And I pray you go back to Oklahoma
Expressing a desire for the person to return to Oklahoma
So I can head back home and be the man that's never known ya
Wishing to go back home and live without knowing the person
Well, I'd have move the mountains roped every damn star
Expressing a willingness to make great efforts to understand the person
To have the slightest idea who you actually are
The difficulty of truly knowing the person despite efforts
One more moment of you laying right here
Longing for moments spent intimately with the person
I wrote you songs that you'll never hear
Regret for unshared feelings and messages through songs
Started out feeling like a damn rebirth
Initial joy transforming into disillusionment and loss of self-value
'Til the laughing stops and you lose your worth
The end of laughter marks a decline in personal worth
You question it all when you lie in your bed
Reflecting on life choices while lying in bed
'Cause you can't take back any love you give
The irreversible nature of giving love
And I hope you find, whatever it is you need
Hope for the person to find what they need and move on
Leave it behind, the wreckage of you and me
Encouraging leaving behind the wreckage of the relationship
And I pray you go back to Oklahoma
Expressing a wish for the person to return to Oklahoma
So I can head back home and be the man that's never known ya
Desiring to return home and live without knowing the person
Well, I hope you find, whatever it is you need
Hope for the person to find what they need and move on
Leave it behind, the wreckage of you and me
Encouraging leaving behind the ruins of their past relationship
And I pray you go back to Oklahoma
Expressing a desire for the person to return to Oklahoma
So I can head back home and be the man that's never known ya
Wishing to go back home and live without knowing the person
