[Verse 1] We looked fine, at least from outside Smiles in photos, playing it right I saw your eyes shift but stayed quiet Told myself silence meant we were fine We still laughed, we walked slow But you slipped further every day I said nothing, and you just stayed Waiting for me to ask you to stay [Pre-Chorus 1] You never left, never made me pay But I made it look like you walked away [Chorus 1] You stayed true, you never swayed You stood your ground when I pulled away You held on tight, never broke And I just turned love into smoke You weren't the reason we fell But I made it feel like hell I ran from truth, rewrote the lines And left you wearing all my crimes Say what I couldn’t say Break what I locked away Scream through the mess I made Leave me with the weight I gave [Verse 2] You got quiet, I called it peace But you were slipping piece by piece I made small talk, looked away While you waited for me to change I said we're tired, just need space But the truth was in every blank face You sat through my empty words Hoping we'd come back first [Pre-Chorus 2] You were breaking quietly And I chose not to see Thought holding on meant love But it was fear inside of me [Chorus 2] You stayed true, you never swayed You stood your ground when I pulled away You held on tight, never broke And I just turned love into smoke You weren't the reason we fell But I made it feel like hell I ran from truth, rewrote the lines And left you wearing all my crimes Say what I couldn’t say Break what I locked away Scream through the mess I made Leave me with the weight I gave [Bridge] We never screamed, we never fought Just stopped holding on at all You stood still, I kept running Pretending nothing was wrong [Final Chorus] You stayed true, you never swayed You stood your ground when I pulled away You held on tight, never broke And I just turned love into smoke You weren't the reason we fell But I made it feel like hell I ran from truth, rewrote the lines And left you wearing all my crimes Say what I couldn’t say Break what I locked away Scream through the mess I made Leave me with the weight I gave [Outro] I watched you walk, but I made the road I didn’t want to lose you, but you chose to go I knew you were done, though I wished you’d stay You were never the bad one
