| cuts deeper than before | B |
| a quiet blade | C |
| pressing piercing repeating | D |
| where healing never quite began | E |
| - | |
| I don t want to lose you again | A |
| You said | F |
| and somehow | G |
| Those words shattered louder | H |
| than silence ever could | I |
| - | |
| The moment you stopped caring | D |
| fell like an avalanche | J |
| sudden crushing | D |
| burying everything | D |
| I thought we were | H |
| - | |
| You promised no more hurt | K |
| no more her | H |
| no more lies wrapped in comfort | K |
| Yet here I stand | L |
| empty handed | M |
| while you re already gone | N |
| - | |
| The one I was told not to fear | O |
| the one I trusted | P |
| became the place you ran to | Q |
| And I wonder | H |
| If your hands fit together now | G |
| the way ours used to | Q |
| - | |
| We were once | R |
| too much for each other | H |
| Now I m nothing | D |
| And she is everything | D |
| - | |
| You said it would never happen again | A |
| funny how promises | S |
| fade faster than feelings | T |
| - | |
| She said she d be there for me | U |
| stood close enough | V |
| to see my heart still reaching for you | Q |
| and still | W |
| She took you anyway | X |
| - | |
| You broke me | U |
| in the same places | S |
| over and over | H |
| and still | W |
| I came back | Y |
| because love made me blind | Z |
| to the damage | A2 |
| - | |
| But now | G |
| There s nothing | D |
| - | |
| No tears | B2 |
| no fire | H |
| just quiet numbness | C2 |
| where love used to live | D2 |
| - | |
| Were your words ever real | E2 |
| Or just echoes | F2 |
| meant to keep me close | G2 |
| - | |
| I gave you everything | D |
| every piece | H2 |
| every breath | I2 |
| every fragile hope | J2 |
| and still | W |
| a part of me lingers | K2 |
| - | |
| But not the same | L2 |
| - | |
| Never the same | L2 |
| - | |
| Because now | G |
| your words | M2 |
| the ones I once held onto | Q |
| feel like knives | N2 |
| I finally learned | O2 |
| not to catch | P2 |
