Music To Cry To

I left too soon, I spoke too fast
A chapter closed that wasn’t past
You looked at me like I still mattered
But I was busy falling backward

And I remember rain on your shoulder
Your voice breaking when it said: It’s over

If I could rewrite my yesterday
I’d take back every word I let decay
I’d hold you closer through the gray
And never push your love away
If time would only disobey
I’d rewrite my yesterday

The clock moves on, but I stay stuck
Playing memories like they’re enough
I see your ghost in morning light
Saying things I wish I said that night

Maybe we were just one page too short
One more breath, and we could’ve fought
But I blinked, and you were gone
Still singing our unfinished song

If I could rewrite my yesterday
I’d color over all the shades of grey
Undo the silence I replay
And beg your heart to let me stay
If time could hear what I would say
I’d rewrite my yesterday

So if tomorrow ever forgives
Let it find me where your memory lives
And maybe then, somehow, someway
We’ll rewrite our yesterday
