What Happened
Back to my favorite place
But it doesn’t feel like home
There’s too many new faces
They’ve filled in my empty space
With strangers who don’t know anything
I didn’t know I was that easy to replace
I’m glad you never changed but
Olivia can you tell my heart is breaking
Can’t you see
This isn’t how it’s supposed to be
They’ve built a fence
Around our dreams
Tell me when did the spirit die
When did we stop crossing our lines
They kill me when they treat this like
It’s just a way of passing time
This used to be lessons on how to live life
Now it’s just useless advice
From a creepy old guy
He doesn’t know shit
And breathes like he’s about to die
I want to be happy but I’m horrified
I’m glad you never changed but
Olivia can you tell my hands are shaking
Did everyone else adjust and grow
When I was stuck at home
This isn’t the place I used to know
My chest is too tight
I’ve forgotten how to fight
Can’t tell if I’m going to throw up
Or scream and cry
But it doesn’t feel like home
There’s too many new faces
They’ve filled in my empty space
With strangers who don’t know anything
I didn’t know I was that easy to replace
I’m glad you never changed but
Olivia can you tell my heart is breaking
Can’t you see
This isn’t how it’s supposed to be
They’ve built a fence
Around our dreams
Tell me when did the spirit die
When did we stop crossing our lines
They kill me when they treat this like
It’s just a way of passing time
This used to be lessons on how to live life
Now it’s just useless advice
From a creepy old guy
He doesn’t know shit
And breathes like he’s about to die
I want to be happy but I’m horrified
I’m glad you never changed but
Olivia can you tell my hands are shaking
Did everyone else adjust and grow
When I was stuck at home
This isn’t the place I used to know
My chest is too tight
I’ve forgotten how to fight
Can’t tell if I’m going to throw up
Or scream and cry
