Take me back to the weekend
Where I barely gave a fuck
That my life was in a rut
Miss how simple it used to be
'Cause I'm lost in my dreams
Things just aren't what they seem

Miss how simple it used to be, whoa

So that's the way it goes
I guess nobody knows
What it means to be
Can't forgive or forget
'Cause life's too short to deal with this
Life's too short to deal with this

And I'd get out of bed
If I wasn't a mess
Write some shit like that
But it's not in my head
I need to slow down
Live for something else
Put the false sense of security back on the shelf

Miss how simple it used to be, whoa

So that's the way it goes
I guess nobody knows
What it means to be
Can't forgive or forget
'Cause life's too short to deal with this
Life's too short to deal with this

So that's the way it goes
I guess nobody knows
What it means to be
Can't forgive or forget
'Cause life's too short to deal with this

This will all be just a memory to me
I've been holding on to things that haunt me in my sleep
I need (I need)
To be (to be)
Who I really want to
Life's too short to deal with this
Life's too short to deal with this
