Martial Bailly - You Should've Been There Lyrics

I hold no grudge against you
I've been the reckless one
But loving is the thing I do
Even though they let me down
Yet I've dread in my mind
That you put there with zeal
You never looked behind
And left me with hurts to heal
In my hardest moments
I looked for your light
To find peace for an instant
And clear the way in my life
Yet I've only met your shadow
Made out of fake promises
And my skin really know
The way you paint deep bruises
You took what you wanted
And then threw me away
Staying quiet is what you expected
But I still have things to say
I was left on my own
Flirting with gloom
Fighting ghosts alone
Lost in this empty room
You should've been there
To ease my pain like I've eased yours
Not let me drown in nightmare
And face alone dark hours
I faced cold mornings
Let tears flow at nightfall
I'm still bleeding
Cause you never answered the call
Hopeless I recall in the night
All the sorrow my heart had to bear
I'll live with this till the end of time
Cause you were not there
I've defied despair
And you should've been there
You should've been there
You should've been there
I've defied despair
And you should've been there
