Why Her Not Me - Grace Carter

I feel your ghost, smell you all over my clothes

Oh, all your smoke’s stuck in me longer then you did

I had my doubts, I had to check it all out

And now I see that you’ve run back when I thought you’d quit

You took my air out of your lungs

So you could breathe with another one

Oh tell me, why her, not me?

What did I do for you to wreck it all?

Oh Lord, it’s not my fault

Why her, not me?

Why did you have to build the walls so high?

Oh no, I’m not done climbing

She heard about me, and all your history

I’m not tryna burn myself but I can let it go

Piece by piece uncovering dishonesty

Never been truth in anything I’ve ever known

Finding out I’m not the only one

Took the air right out my lungs

Oh tell me, why her, not me?

What did I do for you to wreck it all?

Oh Lord, it’s not my fault

Why her, not me?

Why did you have to build the walls so high?

Oh no, I’m not done climbing

Tell me, why her?

You gave her unconditional love

Tell me, why her?

But I’m still climbing

Tell me, why her?

You gave me conditional love

Tell me, why her?

I won’t stop fighting

No, no, no

I won’t lay low, low, low

You gave my soul, soul, soul

I’m not giving in, no

No, no, no

I won’t lay low, low, low

I’ve done no wrong, wrong, wrong

I’m not giving in, no

Why her, not me?

What did I do for you to wreck it all?

Oh Lord, it’s not my fault

Why her, not me?

Why did you have to build the walls so high?

Oh no, I’m not done climbing

Tell me, why her?

You gave her unconditional love

Tell me, why her?

But I’m still climbing

Tell me, why her?

You gave me conditional love

Tell me, why her?

I won’t stop fighting
