I Hope There's Love in Letting Go

Read Receipts

Late night drives down 
one-way streets. 
Deleted voicemails 
and read receipts. 

An end that I think had started before 
we both lost sight of what we had to fight for. 

How could you want something more 
after all that I gave you? 
How could you love someone else 
when you said that mine saved you? 
When you stand in the dark, 
just to pull me apart, 
say it's your heart that hurts 
when it's mine that broke first. 

And all those songs, now, 
that I can't listen to. 
All those words I wrote down 
that remind me of you. 

An end that was destined before we begun. 
An unforgivable game you made sure you won. 

How could you want something more 
after all that I gave you? 
How could you love someone else 
when you said that mine saved you? 
When you stand in the dark, 
and you pull me apart, 
say it's your heart that hurts, 
when it's mine that broke first. 

I know I should delete your number, 
but I have it stuck inside my head. 
I lay awake, hoping each night 
that you'll call, but it feels like I'm 
laying on my deathbed. 
I know you don't hurt this way at all. 

How could you want something more 
after all that I gave you? 
How could you love someone else 
when you said that mine saved you? 
When you stand in the dark, 
and you pull me apart, 
say it's your heart that hurts, 
but it's mine that broke first. 
Say it's your heart that hurts  
when it's mine you broke first. 

And all those songs, now, 
that I can't listen to. 
All those words I wrote down, 
that were all about you. 

Late night drives 
down one-way streets. 
Unopened voicemails...  

And read receipts.
