rest in peace

(álbum: healing hurts - 2023)

I went through my things at my parents house
And it felt like someone had died
I started to cry
My old room is somebody else's
Now it's been years since it was mine
I'm pretending I'm fine

But that version of me
Ten years ago
Where did she go?
Oh, who I used to be
Is just a ghost

I'm trying to mourn
Somebody I'm not anymore
The person that I was before
Is dead and gone, gone, gone
And it's kinda sad
Now knowing I can never go back
To the person I was in the past
I never got to say to goodbye
So rest in peace
To the old me
Rest in peace
Hmm

Feels like I let the me from last June down
She had it all figured out
What would she think of me now? Hmm

'Cause that version of me
Put herself first
She knew her worth
Oh, who I used to be
I really miss her

I'm trying to mourn
Somebody I'm not anymore
The person that I was before
Is dead and gone, gone, gone
And it's kinda sad
Now knowing I can never go back
To the person I was in the past
I never got to say to goodbye
So rest in peace
To the old me
Rest in peace
Hmm

We've gathered here to remember
A woman of great character
And everything that she meant to us all
She was loving and endearing
Wasn't scared at all of her feelings
Made everyone around her feel strong
Ohhh and though she may be gone, her memory lives on
In the hearts of everybody who loved her
So let us bow our heads

Rest in peace
The old me
Rest in peace
Hmm
