JVKE - this is what losing someone feels like

this is what losing someone feels like

Yeah it breaks my heart that i let you leave
Hurts my head seeing memories of you
There aint a thing i wouldn't do
To get a moment back with you
So it breaks my heart that i let you leave
Been so hard Learning how to grieve for you
i shoulda let you know the truth
cuz when you love someone
you tell them that, you tell them that you do

its not that complicated
when you love someone
you tell them that you do
dont waste a second or a breath
you dont know when youre gonna lose them now theyre gone,
but you didn't make that call and now you
live with your regrets becuz its your fault

Shoulda went for coffee on that morning that you stopped me
Shoulda picked my phone up every time you tried to call me, but
I never thought it'd be so soon
I never thought that I would lose you

Shoulda came to visit more and gave you my attention
Shoulda took more photographs and asked you all my questions, like
What would you do if you were me
It feels too soon to let you leave

would you call me crazy if i told you i still call you..
cuz sometimes your the only one i feel like i can talk to, it
Feels like my heart is torn in two
And You took the other half with you

My best friend (who was a huge JVKE fan) passed away the same day this song was released. She was my everything and she was only 14 years old. It kills me she isn't here anymore. This song makes me feel like I'm not alone. Thank you JVKE.






Edit: The comments are the sweetest, you guys are so nice. Thank you so, so much💕

I lost my mother in December. I hadn't truly cried until I heard this song. Thank you for sharing your gift, Jake. ❤

True musicians don’t write songs. They write stories, they write lives, they write emotions, they write friends, they write peace, and they write memories. JVKE is an example of this. Death should never be end. The dead will always be remembered. They will never truly die.

Lyrics:
Should've went for coffee on that Saturday you saw me
Should've picked my phone up every time you tried to call me but
I never thought it'd be so soon
I never thought that I would lose you 'cause

It's not that complicated when you love someone, you tell 'em that you do
Don't waste a second or a breath, you don't know when you're gonna lose them
Now they're gone but you didn't make that call
And now you live with your regrets because it's all your fault

So it breaks my heart that I let you leave
Hurts my head seein' memories of you
There ain't a thing I wouldn't do
To get a moment back with you
So it breaks my heart that I let you leave
Been so hard, learnin' how to grieve for you
I should've let you know the truth
'Cause when you love someone, you tell 'em that you, you tell 'em that you do

Should've came to visit more and gave you my attention
Should've took more photographs and asked you all my questions like
"What would you do if you were me?"
It feels too soon to let you leave
And would you call me crazy if I told you I still call you?
'Cause sometimes you're the only one I feel like I can talk to
It feels like my heart is torn in two
And you took the other half with you 'cause

It's not that complicated when you love someone, you tell 'em that you do
Don't waste a second or a breath, you don't know when you're gonna lose them
Now they're gone but you didn't make that call
And now you live with your regrets because it's all your fault

So it breaks my heart that I let you leave
Hurts my head seein' memories of you
There ain't a thing I wouldn't do
To get a moment back with you
So it breaks my heart that I let you leave
Been so hard, learnin' how to grieve for you
I should've let you know the truth
'Cause when you love someone, you tell 'em that you, you tell 'em that you do

You tell 'em that you do
'Cause when you love someone, you tell 'em that you, you tell 'em that you do

This man doesn't just drop songs, he drops feelings.

I first listened to this song 4 days after my friend passed away. I didn't get to say goodbye to her and I live now regretting that I didn't reach out or even send her a little card. Anyone who is reading this, please cherish every moment you have with your loved ones because you never know when your last goodbye will be.

I heard this song a couple weeks after my grandpa died. Last time I saw him I was high as duck. When I left that day he put his hand on my shoulder and said "I love you son. I know it can be hard some days but I know you can do it." I told him it was a new medication. This old Vietnam vet who took me off the street when I was a teenager, (long before drugs, whole different kind of story)... This man whose whole family adopted me in as another one of the kids... Last time I saw him he hugged me and said he loved me no matter what...

I lose my mind every time I hear this song. But I find it so hard to cry around anyone else... Thank jvke, your music always reaches somewhere deep for me and helps me get out what needs to come out.

I love you Grandpa.

As someone who lost a 13 year old friend, I felt this. JVKE is the type of person who makes the music I love.

[bbycloudisdepressed]

It went from *"Falling in love"* to *"Sadness feels like"* to *"Losing someone"*
Wow JVKE....
You never fail to impress me

Here’s to the last 2 years.
My dad to liver cancer… 6 months from finding out to his passing.
My grandma, his mom passed a few days after his memorial.
My cousin died of an accidental fentanyl overdose. His sister, my other cousin died a year later, same month from alcohol poisoning.
My aunt died of lung disease and my uncle of pancreatic cancer.

I miss you all. It feels like 1/2 my family is gone. I miss you guys

My nana died to COVID almost 2 years ago. When I was younger she’d call me all the time and I’d just pretend that I didn’t see. I had better things to do right?

I have a million missed calls from her, I’d love to pick up.

The first verse sums up my experience perfectly…

Miss you nana

For a new song, this is painful. As someone who lost a loved one, this says it all. You did a great job today JVKE. ❤

Edit: THIS IS THE FIRST COMMENT THAT REACHED THIS MANY LIKES– and for those who replied to this comment, i wanna say that i hope things will get better for all of you. Thanks for your support.

This man proved that you do not need a label or support from other artists to become a famous artist. You are enough and can do it all alone.

[BrotherHoooooood]

I lost my best friend too suicide last Thursday. He was only 12. My family basically watched him grow up. This song makes me feel like I’am not alone. Thanks JVKE

[pickle_ofjar]

i lost my grandmother recently. I really wished i had visited her more often before her passing thank you jvke for sharing this masterpiece and may she rest in peace ❤❤❤

[okayyy__]

Artists like you aren't creating songs, they are creating a sort of therapy for people to heal. I know you'll not read this JVKE, but I've fallen in love with your music. You have songs for everything i have felt. Pain, heartbreak, sadness, loneliness, falling in and out of everything. Each line you sing is so damn relatable and your music is my coping mechanism.

[lekha]

I lost my father recently and this is exactly how I feel. This is exactly what I wanted to tell him. Thank you for creating such a song.

[XxMONZTHERXx]

4 days ago was my grandma’s 17th anniversary since we lost her. She raised me since I was a kid, she was like a mother to me. She taught me what real love was. Now I’m 26 and I still cry just as much as when I was 9 every time I listen to this. Thank you for creating this beautiful song ❤️‍🩹

[elizabethpicklesimer]

As a young woman.. I started losing people at 11 years old and now at almost 22 and 10 years later I've lost 24 people I've loved and it really hurts. JVKE this is spot on for how I feel and so many others feel as well ❤
