don't get to
anthony amorim
you don't get to be here now that i'm lonely
you don't get to hear the sounds of my heartbeat
you don't get to hear my voice when it's shaking
you don't get to be the choices i'm making
you don't get to be the one i remember
long-gone memories from one sad december
they don't get to be about you
i'm better off without you
you know that i don't get it
i thought everything was cool
now i'm sitting here sweating it
now i'm sitting here regretting it
and all these pictures on my phone in somebody else's home
they'll go to waste i guess
what we had was real and it all ended fake i guess
my biggest wish was my biggest mistake and yet
you got me so full of hate and yet
i love the way you treat me
only when it's just me and you
i'm wishing you would reach me
you told me you were leaving
i don't want anything but
and the things that you say that i don't know if you mean
now you don't get to be the world
you don't get to be here now that i'm lonely
you don't get to hear the sounds of my heartbeat
you don't get to hear my voice when it's shaking
you don't get to be the choices i'm making
you don't get to be the one i remember
long-gone memories from one sad december
they don't get to be about you
i'm better off without you
i'm not as strong as i make myself out to be
i've never been as lonely in my life as i'm about to be
it's still you on my mind when i'm fast asleep
does your heart still beat?
it doesn't sing these words
it doesn't know my rhymes
and you won't care to learn
something strong in my cup
i guess this is growing up
thoughts forming in my brain
no more kissing you goodbye
all things come to an end
you don't get to be here now that i'm lonely
you don't get to hear the sounds of my heartbeat
you don't get to hear my voice when it's shaking
you don't get to be the choices i'm making
you don't get to be the one i remember
long-gone memories from one sad december
they don't get to be about you
i'm better off without you
you don't get to be right there when i'm sleeping
you don't get to be the company i'm keeping
you don't get to hear the sounds of my laughter
you don't get to be my happy ever after
you don't get to be the one i remember
long-gone memories from one sad december
and this song is the last i write about you
