[Verse 1]
Did I mean it
When I said I don’t care what you think about me leavin'?
'Cause I really didn’t feel it
Tell me, was it selfish
To give you up for what I wanted in the moment?
I was tired of pretending we’re doing okay
[Pre-Chorus]
Starting now to realize
Guilt is ruthless
'Cause the truth is
[Chorus]
I'm livin' off blame and bad excuses
Petrified, retracing all my steps
Haunted by the rumors
Shadows of the truth
Oh, I live with the ghost of my regret
[Verse 2]
Did you mean it
All the things you never said, hidden by your silent treatment?
Always scared of what you’re thinkin'
Give me a reason
Why staying would have even made any difference
It just felt so easy to throw it away
[Pre-Chorus]
Thought the hurt would heal with time
But guilt is ruthless
'Cause the truth is
[Chorus]
I'm livin' off blame and bad excuses
Petrified, retracing all my steps
Haunted by the rumors
Shadows of the truth
Oh, I live with the ghost of my regret
[Bridge]
Keeps me up at night
There's nowhere I can hide
Guilt is ruthless
[Chorus]
I'm livin' off blame and bad excuses
Petrified, retracing all my steps
Haunted by the rumors
Shadows of the truth
Oh, I live with the ghost of my regret

What’s the inspiration? When two people you love, fall out of love, and all you know is no more, questions and regret overcome. This is it. With the divorce of my parents, everything that I grew up knowing about family, security, and love fell apart. It led to self-doubt...
