[Intro – spoken; light instrumental] I didn't leave fast— I left finished. [Verse 1 – intimate, light instrumental] I felt sick all the time with you. I was tired all the time with you. Every day had a fight in it, and somehow it was always my fault. I stopped saying what I thought. I stopped asking for anything. I did whatever kept you calm— and it still wasn't enough. [Pre-Chorus – light drums enter, building tension] You didn't have to yell to make me feel small. You didn't have to hit me to mess me up at all. I tried to talk it out— you turned it back on me. So I learned to hate you so I could finally leave. [Chorus – heavy full drop, raspy power vocals, last line screamed] I feel so sick, I feel empty— You fucking depleted me. You took everything out of me till I couldn't stand the sight of you—so blame me. I had to fucking hate you before I left, 'cause loving you kept me stuck. I didn't leave because it was easy— I left because I'd had… ENOUGH! [Verse 2 – soft pulse underneath, near a cappella] You wanted me available all the time. You wanted me quiet when you were wrong. If I brought up what you did, you said I was "starting drama." I walked on eggshells in my own house. I apologized just to end it. I felt alone sitting next to you— [Pre-Chorus – heavier build] Don't act like you don't know. Don't act like you're confused. I said it plain, I said it straight— you just didn't want the truth. [Chorus – heavy full drop, raspy power vocals, last line screamed] I feel so sick, I feel empty— You’re fucking depleting. You took everything out of me till I couldn't stand the sight of you—so blame me. I had to fucking hate you before I left, 'cause loving you kept me stuck. I didn't leave because it was easy— I left because I'd had… ENOUGH! [Outro – calm a cappella, lethal delivery] Now you can be loud by yourself.
