“AS IT SHOULD is a timeline of feelings about the one that got away and how you just have to come to terms with them moving on and choosing someone else.” – Grant Knoche
[Verse 1]
Hold my breath, won’t you?
So I don’t say something foolish
I’m not used to feeling useless
[Pre-Chorus]
I-I-I gotta out of here
I’m lying to myself
I-I-I know that you’re over me
And under someone else
[Chorus]
So I'm guessing I'm supposed to say, "I'm happy"
Happier now that you’ve pulled the plug on me
But deep down I'm throwing my own pity party
'Cause if it were to happen, it would’ve happened as it should
[Verse 2]
Now I'm seeing clearly
'Cause those hazel eyes
When they look at mine, I don’t feel a thing
[Pre-Chorus]
I-I-I gotta out of here
I’m lying to myself
I-I-I know that you’re over me
And under someone else
[Chorus]
So I'm guessing I'm supposed to say, "I'm happy"
Happier now that you’ve pulled the plug on me
But deep down I'm throwing my own pity party
'Cause if it were to happen, it would’ve happened as it should
[Bridge]
Years go by
And I still think from time to time
That if I were to happen, it would’ve happened
[Chorus]
But I'm guessing I should call and say, "I'm happy"
Happy for the both of you and for your ring
But deep down i’m still throwing my pity party
'Cause if it were to happen, it would’ve happened as it should
