Should Be Us by Tommy Kay Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I gave up the gold like I stopped at the finish line
You told me things would get better just give it time
But I can’t forget us, as hard as I tend to try
Even with another girl in bed you in my distant mind
You were my star but the whole sky was misaligned
After graduating we were bound to hit a different grind
Started smoking weed had you thinking I’m sniffing lines
But stealing your heart then breaking it was the malicious crime
I ain’t proud I’m just the typical college guy
Doing that to ya, I never planned to drop it like
The way I did cause you always had me on a chronic high
But that day I swear my dreams died no homicide
I spent months layin with ya tryna give you faith
That even though we so far apart what we had would stay
But I betrayed every ounce of trust you had in me
And had your whole world crash down like a flat souflee
And each passing day I see every prom dance
And our first kiss in my high school parking lot damn
Hearts on fire loved the Heat like some Lebran fans
It’s all on me I blew it up like a Unabomb man
Everyday’s a struggle, don’t know why I put an end to you
It eating me away seeing other guys get into you
It should be us, but all I got is a pen or two
Writing bout how we fell apart when we went to school
[Hook]
Layin alone, thinking bout where you are
It was all my fault I let things go too far
Clouds over my head you know its just stormy weather
Because it should be us together
In the studio just thinking bout who you seein
No life left in me I swear I’m barely breathin
This heart in my chest is just some broken treasure
Cause you know it should be us together
Yea it should be us together x3
[Verse 2]
If everyone deserve it then tell me where my second chance
Fighting for ya love till I die no veteran
And you won’t understand why you can never be just a friend
It’s a front row seat to watch you find another man
After the split I sent you flowers on V-Day
You shot me down no delay, life’s a beach you turned mine into D-Day
My mind decays, when I hit dream state
You’re back in my arms hidden emotions all replay
Wake up to you gone, all I got are bars left
I ain’t a star yet but one day I’ll hit that red carpet
And maybe that’ll bring you back yea I know that its far fetched
Like tryna play ball with a dog that can’t even walk yet
But as long as we alive imma keep a drop of hope
Cause I can’t stand in a crowded room and say im not alone
Girl I’ll paint the picture clear black and white monochrome
I treated you right top class like the honor roll
Every girl compared to you just always seem to fall short
Cause everything we had was straight magic like Hogwarts
And every day I wish I could take away our July Fourth
And bring our love back cause you the only one I’d die for
I gave up the gold like I stopped at the finish line
You told me things would get better just give it time
But I can’t forget us, as hard as I tend to try
Even with another girl in bed you in my distant mind
You were my star but the whole sky was misaligned
After graduating we were bound to hit a different grind
Started smoking weed had you thinking I’m sniffing lines
But stealing your heart then breaking it was the malicious crime
