Verse
I’ve been hurt before
But not like this
I didn’t know pain
Could exist like this
It sits in my chest
It won’t let me breathe
Feels like my heart
Is breaking quietly
Pre-C
Then it hits me again
Out of nowhere, out of blue
That you’re not coming back
And there’s nothing I can do
Chorus
I didn’t know
Love could kill inside
Every breath, every thought,
every night
I’ve felt pain before
But not like this kind
I didn’t know
I’d shatter so deep
I’ve known hurt before
But this won’t let me sleep
Verse
It hurts in my body
It hurts in my bones
I feel it when I’m breathing
When I’m all alone
If this is grief
I wasn’t prepared
I didn’t know love
Could hurt like this
Pre-C
If this is real
I don’t want it
If this is life
I don’t understand it
Chorus
I didn’t know
Love could kill inside
Every breath, every thought,
every night
I’ve felt pain before
But not like this kind
I didn’t know
I’d shatter so deep
I’ve known hurt before
But this won’t let me sleep
[Bridge bare, breaking]
I’d give anything
Just to get you back
I’ll live with the pain
I’ll take that deal
I don’t wanna feel
This pain that feels unreal
[Final Chorus quiet, collapsing]
I can’t breathe
I can’t see
How a world so loud
Feels so empty
I call your name
It doesn’t sound
Like you ever even lived here now
Outro
I don’t know how to move
I don’t know how to stay
I just know the room is empty
And I can’t make it go away
I don’t want tomorrow
I don’t want to be strong
All I need is you
Not to be gone
