THE STORY:
Here’s the heavy luggage that was brought to the reunion. 

THE LYRICS:

Don't romanticize
Who I was two years ago
Cause I like the me right now
He's better than the me back then
Have you always been so scared?
Say you're only happy by yourself
And I can't say that I blame you
When did you become hardened?
It's strange we both turned out that way

So today I look much different
From how you remembered me.
Does my smile take up less space?
Hard times show up on my face?
Have you always felt so low?
The mouth that I once kissed
Is asking me to keep my space
And you seem further away
Than spending years apart

Do you ever fear we already
lived our greatest times?
Something unexplainable
Has cut you up inside
But don't frown
Gonna be the one who never let you down

Would it have been more ideal
To keep the memories surreal?
Never know what lives we led
Flirt with the past tense instead
Cause it hurts to see you broken
And I think it's time that I stop thinking
For myself
Not meant to be together
Doesn't mean meant to be apart

You never made me sad
I did that to myself
I wanna see you happy
But you won't be happy
Until you love yourself
Will you love yourself?
Will we meet again?
Will something ever save us?

So you will romanticize
Who I was two years ago
I'll never know the you back then
I'll never know the you right now
Will we always be alone
I wondered my whole way home
