[Verse 1]
You pushed on the one who held you
Talked sharp to the softest hands
She stood in the door
Eyes shining
Still asked if you’d made it home safe
Called you by your broken name
Like it wasn’t something to hate
[Chorus]
When you hurt someone who truly cares for you
And they still treat you like you’re something to protect
You might not see it in the mirror yet
But you just lost something rare
Not just a person
You just lost a soul
[Verse 2]
She folded your rage like laundry
Hung it on a quiet line
Cooked late
Left a plate with your favorite
Turned out the light at your side
You thought that kind of grace grows back
It don’t grow back every time
[Chorus]
When you hurt someone who truly cares for you
And they still talk to you with steady respect
You might not feel the ground shake yet
But you just lost something rare
Not just a person
You just lost a soul
[Bridge]
[Claps and organ rise
Choir humming]
Some hearts don’t slam the door
They fade
Leave a light on while they walk away
You won’t hear the lock
You’ll miss the sound
But you’ll feel the echo when you turn around
[Chorus]
When you hurt someone who truly cares for you
And they still bless you on their way out the door
You might not taste the salt right yet
But you just lost something rare
Not just a person
You just lost a soul
(You just lost a soul)
