I Thought I'd Be Happier Lyrics

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

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

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

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
