about

I wrote this song in July 2012. This song is about my most recent breakup, which was in May. The general idea throughout the song is that I wish that we didn't break up, but I don't regret the fact that we dated.

lyrics

I left my baggage at the terminal but they sent it back
I didn't want it
I didn't need it
When you first saw my ghost
You stayed by my side
Now you're nowhere to be found
Nowhere to be found

And now I learned that I can make it on my own
I may not have you but I think you should know

So here I stand
No direction where to go
When given fight or flight
You took the easy road
But I cannot lie
It was the happiest time of my life
You may disagree but it wasn't wasted
I don't regret it

So here I am
Two months later and I'm finally getting over it
Getting over it
I have no clue how you're doing
I haven't talked to you in ages
You're probably doing fine
Doing just fine

But now I learned that I can make it on my own
I may not have you but I think you should know

So here I stand
No direction where to go
When given fight or flight
You took the easy road
But I cannot lie
It was the happiest time of my life
You may disagree but it wasn't wasted
I don't regret it

It's been so long
I don't quite remember you
But I thought you were beautiful and I still do
We both have our faults
Some worse than others
We could have conquered them all when we had each other

I don't know if I should wait you out or let you go
I've never had so much doubt
I've never had to pray so much in my life
I wish you would have stayed
We could have made it right

So here I stand
No direction where to go
When given fight or flight
You took the easy road
But I cannot lie
It was the happiest time of my life
You may disagree but it wasn't wasted
I don't regret it

I don't regret it
I don't regret it

Lead vocalist and rhythm guitar player, Ben Vasko, decided to give it another shot, this time taking his musical pursuits in a little different direction. A short time later, he began his new project with the intent of recording an ep of his own. ... more
