[Instrumental Intro] ... ... ... [Verse 1] I hear your voice in empty rooms, Like it never really left. Every word I tried to say Still catches in my chest. I gave you everything I had, Every truth, every doubt. I stayed when it was breaking down, And you were already halfway out. [Pre-Chorus] I felt the distance growing, Even when you swore you'd stay. I held onto your promises, While you pulled away. [Chorus] Tell me I deserve this, Say it soft if you can. Tell me I deserve this, Like this was your plan. I trusted every word you gave me, I believed you every time. If letting go was easier— Then Tell me I deserve this. [Verse 2] I traced your name in passing thoughts, Tried to make it fade. Every memory feels unfinished, Every goodbye feels too late. You looked at me like you were gone, Before you ever left. If love was never more than words to you, Why did you ever let me feel like they were? [Pre-Chorus] I felt it slipping through, Every time you looked away. I asked you to be honest— You asked me to have faith. [Chorus] Tell me I deserve this, Say it soft if you can. Tell me I deserve this, Like this was your plan. I trusted every word you gave me, I believed you every time. If letting go was easier— Then Tell me I deserve this. [Breakdown] You don’t get to walk away clean. You don’t get to rewrite history. You watched me fall and never helped So don’t you dare put this on me. (Say it— say it again!)— Say it’s all my fault. (Say it— say it again!)— Say it to my face. [Chorus] Tell me I deserve this, Say it soft if you can. Tell me I deserve this, Like this was your plan. I trusted every word you gave me, I believed you every Goddamned time. If letting go was easier— Then Tell me I deserve this. [Final breakdown] (Tell me, tell me)— Tell me I deserve this. (Tell me, tell me)— Tell me I deserve this. (Tell me, tell me)— Tell me I deserve this.
