I Thought I’d Be Happier

[Verse 1]
I never meant to leave anyone behind
I just felt that it was my time
I wanted to leave and be free
I didn’t think about the casualties
They all told me, “you’re gonna be lonely”
I brushed it off, “that’s not new to me”
There is so much I wanna forget
I just really wanna reset

[Chorus]
I thought I’d be happier
But I’m not, I fear I’m worse
I thought I could escape the hurt
But it followed me, I’m cursed
I thought I’d be happier
But that’s just not the case
I thought I could move on and replace my broken heart
But it’s the same

[Verse 2]
It’s like I have everything I’ve ever wanted right in front of me
But it’s just not enough, cause I’m without the one I love
I thought I could forget all about him
But I’ve tried, and trust me I did
In those lonely nights, I wish that he was here
I still miss him

[Chorus]
I thought I’d be happier
But I’m not, I fear I’m worse
I thought I could escape the hurt
But it followed me, I’m cursed
I thought I’d be happier
But that’s just not the case
I thought I could move on and replace my broken heart
But it’s the same
