[Verse 1]
What's the point in having memories if I'll forget them?
What's the point in having friends since they all left?
You could say I was the one that left my friends
But I wanted to be with them till the end

I wanted my grandpa till the end but now he's dead
Good 10 years for him was ahead
I care about everyone, that's what I said
But no one in public cares about me, so I cry in bed

If I had a dollar for every time someone said they hate me
I'd have enough to grow like 50 money trees
Then maybe I wouldn't have had to steal money
Maybe I wouldn't steal from my family

Mom, I'm sorry for all the hurdles
That I set up for you myself
It affected yours & my mental health
You tell me you love me, but you probably stopped thinking that for a second

[Chorus]
You can't live life
Without leaving something behind
Sacrifices are a part of living
Let it go, so you don't drown in the swimming
You can't live life
Without leaving something behind
Sacrifices are a part of living
Let it go, so you don't drown in the swimming

[Verse 2]
I wonder how William is, hope he's having a good life
I wonder how Mehvish is, probably wishes death threats to me at night
But honestly, I completely understand why
They would leave me all over time

I really try to be nice
But no one cares, so I'm left behind
It seems like there's no love in sight
Guess that's how logic in life goes, it's a homicide

It would be cool if I had someone to talk to while I fight
These pains that I have, don't even have a knife
To kill myself or kill others, don't have any might
But I don't wanna do it anyway, love is what I strive

Do you think I like having to cry?
You think I like trying to fit in, by using women & getting high?
I don't ever wanna do that, so they hate me & tell me to die
So you know what, goodbye!
[Chorus]
You can't live life
Without leaving something behind
Sacrifices are a part of living
Let it go, so you don't drown in the swimming

You can't live life
Without leaving something behind
Sacrifices are a part of living
Let it go, so you don't drown in the swimming

[Outro]
And no, I'm not gonna hurt myself
I just wanna try & tell you to accept everyone
And just cherish what you have in life
You never know when you'll lose something or lose yourself
