What Happened to Ryan Lyrics
[Verse 1]
French fries off the dollar menu
Walkin' right outside the venue
We used to go with somebody I used to know, mm
Made a mess out of your kitchen
Then watch shitty television, oh-oh
Feels like a lifetime ago
[Pre-Chorus]
Has anybody heard from him?
'Cause lately I been wonderin'
[Chorus]
What happened to Ryan?
He's radio silent
Oh, and last time I saw him, I think he was drinkin' and drivin'
What happened to Ryan?
His mama been cryin'
Oh, he can't get out of bed but God knows he's tryin'
[Verse 2]
First, it was vodka in a water bottle
We was sippin', slippin' like there's no tomorrow
Anyone could see it was fuckin' you up
A real fuckin' friend would've taken your cup
But we were young then
Sometimes I wish that we were young again, yeah
Back then when the partyin' was not a problem
And if it ever was, man, the shots would solve 'em all
French fries off the dollar menu
Walkin' right outside the venue
We used to go with somebody I used to know, mm
Made a mess out of your kitchen
Then watch shitty television, oh-oh
Feels like a lifetime ago
[Pre-Chorus]
Has anybody heard from him?
'Cause lately I been wonderin'
[Chorus]
What happened to Ryan?
He's radio silent
Oh, and last time I saw him, I think he was drinkin' and drivin'
What happened to Ryan?
His mama been cryin'
Oh, he can't get out of bed but God knows he's tryin'
[Verse 2]
First, it was vodka in a water bottle
We was sippin', slippin' like there's no tomorrow
Anyone could see it was fuckin' you up
A real fuckin' friend would've taken your cup
But we were young then
Sometimes I wish that we were young again, yeah
Back then when the partyin' was not a problem
And if it ever was, man, the shots would solve 'em all
[Pre-Chorus]
And I barely made it out
So it's hard to think about
[Chorus]
What happened to Ryan?
He's radio silent
Oh, the last time I saw him he told me he's thinkin' of dyin'
What happened to Ryan?
His mama been cryin'
Oh, he can't get out of bed but God knows he's tryin'
[Outro]
So tell me when it's over
Maybe I'll come over
We can be kids again
Not everything has to end
So tell me when it's over
And maybe I'll come over
We can be kids again
Not everything has to end
Hmm-mm
And I barely made it out
So it's hard to think about
[Chorus]
What happened to Ryan?
He's radio silent
Oh, the last time I saw him he told me he's thinkin' of dyin'
What happened to Ryan?
His mama been cryin'
Oh, he can't get out of bed but God knows he's tryin'
[Outro]
So tell me when it's over
Maybe I'll come over
We can be kids again
Not everything has to end
So tell me when it's over
And maybe I'll come over
We can be kids again
Not everything has to end
Hmm-mm

Genius Annotation
“I wrote ‘What Happened to Ryan’ about losing somebody you love to addiction. It’s something I’ve seen a lot in my life with multiple people, and it’s a song that needed to be wrote because it’s very fucking real. There’s nothing I can really say that’s gonna say more than the song already says.”
