Legacy

WRITTEN: 01/23/23

This song didn't age well at all.... I was wrong. Whoops- 

THIS REALLY AGED BADLY 😭✋ SORRY, I'M SO SORRY :'((

This entire song is a direct reference to one of my first songs I published here. You can compare the lyricism between both and you'll be ✨ mind blown ✨

This is like the mature version of that song', once " you know better" and know what you know now. Do I still wish they'd come back to me? Yes, but I also know it's time to move on. Mostly because that's what my friends suggested yesterday when I was venting-

It's been 3 years. I need to let it go. But I've got serious abandonment issues 😭 

And this person is good, I swear. We all have our issues, and they've gone through some dark shit. It's me, I'm the problem, for pining over someone over so long. Literally, blame me, yet no one ever does. 

1ST VERSE:

I've been an empty void lately

Not just for a couple weeks

But since I've turned 16

I remembered how I believed

That one day you'd come back to me

And you did, you came back

And then decided to leave

Cause that's all you ever do

Oh, what a legacy

PRE-CHORUS:

So I'll proceed to leave a legacy

One that you'll never foresee

I've even started to write poetry

That's a real legacy

Don't you think?

CHORUS:

Maybe I'm in too deep

Maybe it's jealousy

But I need you here with me

Maybe it's bittersweet

Maybe the problem is me

But for you, I need to leave a legacy

So please, remember me

POST-CHORUS:

You're so out of reach

You're so out of reach

Yeah, you're all I need

Yeah, you're all I need

2ND VERSE:

I've only just realized

How loving you

Is like getting over a bad breakup

If I could, I'd delete all feelings

But it's not that easy

I'll pace around in my kitchen and reminisce

I'll look back to every text you ever sent

Say, is this toxic?

Well, my friends think it is

Hey, you started it ( again )

PRE-CHORUS:

So I'll proceed to leave a legacy

One that you'll never foresee

I've even memorized the dictionary

That's a real legacy

Don't you think?

CHORUS:

Maybe I'm in too deep

Maybe it's jealousy

But I need you here with me

Maybe it's breaking me

Maybe the problem is me

But for you, I need to leave a legacy

So please, remember me

POST-CHORUS:

You're so out of reach

You're so out of reach

Yeah, you're all I need

Yeah, you're all I need

BRIDGE:

And I'm coming undone

5 am, wondering " My God, what did I  do wrong?"

Maybe I'm the problem. No, I'm not

My friends suggest, it's become too much

It's been six months

They said I should try to move on

Oh, but they don't know how I truly feel

And it was love, it was love

But not as it was

I know you've forgotten about us

But I swear, you could've been the one

PRE-CHORUS:

So I'll proceed to leave a legacy

One that you'll never foresee

This love is clogged down the brink

And it's become utterly frustrating

CHORUS:

Maybe I'm in too deep

Maybe it's jealousy

But I need you here with me

Maybe it's breaking me

Maybe the problem is me

But for you, I need to leave a legacy

So please, remember me

OUTRO: 

You're so out of reach

You're so out of reach

Yeah, you're all I need

Yeah, you're all I need
