Lyrics
[intro]
[Verse]
It's 2 AM, staring at the old version of me that only I can see.
I miss excitement preparing for our first date, that ended horribly,
Back when love was hot and filled with butterflies.
I miss me (i miss me)
Lost touch with old friends, we all grew apart, they chased different dreams, I didn't even start.
Wasted every night, perkies, and empty bottles, i just wish i could restart.
I miss me
[Chorus]
I'm missing everything, like polaroids with my day 1, (day 1)
Fading memories of what we could have done,
All the places we swore we'd go,
Now I realize those were the times i wish i never let go (now they're gone)
I'm missing everything, it's slipping through my hands,
And Nothing I can do but chase it again, and cry about the fact that old me is dead and so are you, (we both are)
[Verse]
Used to laugh at the dumbest things,
Now it's just bills and deadlines, and what tomorrow brings,
Where'd the heartbreak go? The midnight drives?
Now it's just traffic and nine to five (nine to five)
Still got that hoodie from high school that's filled with holes just like my heart that i gave you to hold,
It smells like cologne, teenage love and empty promises.
my parents tried to warn me, but id still run away with you right now. (trust me I know)
we Skipped class, fell in love, wrote our names in the sand, and broke up on inst- uh-gram
Now it's just "remember when?" my heart bleeds with sadness, wondering how we got here, and who I am."
[Chorus]
I'm missing everything, like polaroids with my day 1, (day 1)
Fading memories of what we've done,
All the places we swore we'd go,
Now I realize those were the times i wish i never let go (now they're gone)
I'm missing everything, it's slipping through my hands,
And Nothing I can do but chase it again, and cry about the fact that old me is dead and so are you, (we both are)
[Bridge]
We were invincible, felt like gods in our hometown,
Now we're just faces in the crowd, feeling run-down,
I miss the cold air in those fearless nights,
Now it's all red flags, dating apps, and girls I wish i never had (im talkin bout you)
[Outro]
I'm missing everything, the past and the pain, (oh yeah)
But I wouldn't trade the memories, they're the only thing keeping me sane.
I'll hold onto the laughter, the tears, and the scars, (its all i have)
Because they're all a part of who we are.
I'm missing everything, i miss me, but i miss you.
[Outro]
