Chip on Our Shoulders

Maybe I'm not supposed to be over him
Look at all the times I've tried
Maybe there's a reason why it's not working
I'm tired of the idea of him not being mine
I was telling my heart to just forget
But all it did was break more instead

I tried to live without him
I tried to breathe on my own
Even tried to mend the broken heart
That he wounded so long ago
I tried to smile at nothing
And laugh at every stupid joke
Tried to tell myself it's over
From the words he spoke

But I just can't let go

Wish I could turn back the sun
And cherish what I didn't before
Re-do every pleasant thing done
And make it mean so much more
He doesn't wanna tell me that he feels the same
That he's inexplicably twisted up in the game

He tried to live without me
Tried to breathe on his own
Tried to forget my broken heart
That he wounded so long ago
He tried to smile at nothing
And laugh at every worthless joke
Kept reminded himself it's over
From the words he spoke

I guess he, too, just can't let go
