[Verse 1: asiris]
I thought that I was finally okay
I used to wanna skip our song and now I let it play
Thought my heart was startin' to change
'Cause whenever I saw the old stuff, I just threw it away

[Pre-Chorus: asiris]
I told myself I didn't need you, didn't need you
And I said some things I didn't need to, didn't need to
When I promised I would never leave you, never leave you
I lied and I'll accept it, but I wish I never sent it

[Chorus: asiris]
I thought I was over you, then I saw you with somebody else
The way you looked in his eyes made me feel unwell
I'm haunted by our history
Livin' rent free in my memoriеs
I thought I was okay 'til I saw a photo up on the shelf
The way you lookеd in my arms, I can't forget how it felt
I'm haunted by our history
Livin' rent free in my memories

[Verse 2: John Michael Howell]
It's harder to move on when you're the one who broke her heart
I'd do anything to make it right, but I'm already out of time
I had her in my arms and I left her in the dark
Oh, I wish that I could hit rewind, how could I ever be so blind?
The way he looked you in the eyes, it's like he saw an angel
I shoulda looked at you the same, now lookin' back is painful
'Cause you were always kind and I was always hateful
You don't know what you have if you're never grateful
[Pre-Chorus: John Michael Howell]
I told myself I didn't need you, didn't need you
And I said some things I didn't need to, didn't need to
When I promised I would never leave you, never leave you
I lied and I'll accept it, but I wish I never sent it

[Chorus: asiris, John Michael Howell & Both]
I thought I was over you, then I saw you with somebody else
The way you looked in his eyes made me feel unwell
I'm haunted by our history
Livin' rent free in my memories
I thought I was okay 'til I saw a photo up on the shelf
The way you looked in my arms, I can't forget how it felt
I'm haunted by our history
Livin' rent free in my memories
