[Verse 1] You said “we’ll make it work” with your fingers already twitching, Your voice cracked early — the promise started glitching. We built a shaky bridge on a timer set to blow, Every step was screaming what we didn’t want to know. [Chorus] So don’t pretend this hits harder than it should, We saw the break coming — yeah, we understood. A promise on a countdown never makes it through, It’s no surprise it hurts — we knew, we knew. [Verse 2] We patched the leaks again with the same hesitation, Holding on too tight just to feel the separation. Your eyes said “this won’t last” before your mouth could speak, And I stayed anyway, calling it “hope” for a week. [Bridge] No blame — no war — we carried the weight. Ticking in our hands — too loud, too late. Signed on the line — knowing it would fade. Built to collapse — and it fell the same way. [Final Chorus] So don’t pretend this hits harder than it should, We saw the break coming — yeah, we understood. A promise on a countdown never makes it through, It’s no surprise it hurts — we knew, we knew. Yeah, it cuts, but it’s true — we knew.
