[Verse 1]
Your coat still hangs by the door
Like you might walk back in
I left the light on for hours
Then let the dark move in
I kept your name in my mouth
Like it could bring you near
But every time I said it
I felt the wound get clearer
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept my heart wide open
You kept your hand on the blade
Now every promise looks broken
In the same old shade
[Chorus]
I’m learning that it’s the one we love
We give the power to hurt us
The one we trust
Can tear us apart
I’m learning that it’s the one we love
We give the power to hurt us
You had my love
Right in your hands
Right on my heart
[Verse 2]
You knew the soft spots in me
The places I hide my fear
You’d kiss the cracks in my armor
Then make the whole thing reappear
Now I’m pacing these rooms alone
Counting what I gave away
You left a bruise on my memory
That time can’t wash away
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept my heart wide open
You kept your hand on the blade
Now every promise looks broken
In the same old shade
[Chorus]
I’m learning that it’s the one we love
We give the power to hurt us
The one we trust
Can tear us apart
I’m learning that it’s the one we love
We give the power to hurt us
You had my love
Right in your hands
Right on my heart
[Rap]
Yeah, I learned the hard way, love can turn to a weapon
Smile on your face, but the pain was embedded
I was building you a home, you was mapping the exit
I was losing my breath every time I texted
Told myself “stay” when my soul said “leave”
Too deep in the water, couldn’t swim, couldn’t breathe
You knew where it hit, made the deepest cuts personal
Now I’m patching my pride with a faith that’s reversible
I don’t hate you, nah, I hate what I gave
I hate how I folded for the things you’d say
But I’m still here, still standing in the wreckage
Still learning how to guard what I once thought was precious
[Bridge]
If love is a door
Then pain’s got a key
I lost myself there
You don’t get all of me
[Final Chorus]
I’m learning that it’s the one we love
We give the power to hurt us
The one we trust
Can tear us apart
I’m learning that it’s the one we love
We give the power to hurt us
You had my love
Right in your hands
Right on my heart
[Outro]
Right on my heart
Right on my heart
Yeah, right on my heart
