Verse 1] I see the pain in every word you said, Fighting demons, and it’s messing with your head. You’re addicted to a love, but it’s bleeding dry, I don’t want to be the reason you cry. You say I’m your high, but it’s dangerous ground, We’re both trapped in this cycle, spinning around. [Chorus] But love ain’t supposed to feel like a chain, No, love shouldn’t come with this kind of pain. I don’t want to be the one you lean on wrong, I need you to be strong when I’m gone. So if loving me is breaking you inside, Maybe we need to step back, and let love decide. [Verse 2] I know you’re feeling lost in this stormy sea, But I can’t be the cure for your misery. I’m not a drug, I can’t numb your pain, I’m just a heart, trying to stay sane. I’m scared of the anger you’re holding inside, But if we don’t face it, we’ll both be denied. [Chorus] But love ain’t supposed to feel like a chain, No, love shouldn’t come with this kind of pain. I don’t want to be the one you lean on wrong, I need you to be strong when I’m gone. So if loving me is breaking you inside, Maybe we need to step back, and let love decide. [Bridge] What if this love is a lesson in disguise? Teaching us the truth beneath the lies? I want to stay, but not at the cost, Of both our hearts being lost, So let’s figure out, what love really means, Before it tears apart all our dreams. [Verse 3] I’m not leaving to cause you more pain, But maybe some space could clear the rain. We’ve got to heal, and it starts from within, Love should lift you up, not pull you in. So take my hand, let’s take it slow, And we’ll find out if this love can still grow. [Chorus] But love ain’t supposed to feel like a chain, No, love shouldn’t come with this kind of pain. I don’t want to be the one you lean on wrong, I need you to be strong when I’m gone. So if loving me is breaking you inside, Maybe we need to step back, and let love decide.
