Lyrics

• Demo Version

[Verse 1]
Yelling at the sky, screaming at the world
I tried to tell you how I feel, but I was never good with words
Pictures on the wall, hang over my head
Of broken dreams and promises, the things I never said

[Pre-Chorus]
How do I love?
How do I love again?

[Chorus]
I wish you were here
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
And I wish you cared
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
I just never said it out loud, out loud
I never said it out loud

[Verse 2]
Holding on too tight, head up in the clouds
Heaven only knows, where you are now
It feels like you're still here, though I know you left
Your coat is in the closet, and your shoes are by the bed
You might also like

[Pre-Chorus]
How do I love?
How do I love again?

[Chorus]
I wish you were here
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
And I wish you cared
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
I just never said it out loud, out loud
I never said it out loud

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I never said it out loud
Oh, out

[Chorus]
I wish you were here
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
And I wish you cared
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
I just never said it out loud, out loud, out loud
I never said it out loud, out loud
I never said it out loud

Yelling at the sky
Screaming at the world
I tried to tell you how I feel
But I was never good with words
Pictures on the wall
Hang over my head
Of broken dreams and promises
The things I never said
How do I love?
How do I love again?

I wish you were here
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay
And I wish you cared
I wish you would call
I was never really okay
I was never really okay

I just never said it out loud
Out loud
I just never said it out loud
Out loud
I just never said it out loud
out loud
I never said it out loud
