(Verse 1)
Yeah, I ain’t tryna fall again, I been down that road before,
Gave you pieces of my heart, you left ’em scattered on the floor.
Told me “trust me,” but you never said you’d stay for sure,
Now I’m staring at the ceiling like, what was all that for?
You had me open, wide open, now I’m closed off,
All those late-night texts feel like a write-off.
Should’ve known love hurts, but I’m still thrown off,
You the reason why my guard feel like it’s stone-walled.
⸻
(Hook)
’Cause every time I love, I break,
And every time I trust, it fades.
Why you make forever feel fake?
Now I’m tryna heal from the mess you made.
I don’t wanna hurt no more,
But my heart don’t trust no more.
You left me out in the cold,
Now I’m numb down to my soul.
⸻
(Verse 2)
I put you first when I should’ve put me next,
Now I’m rewriting all my boundaries, leveling the decks.
You were playing with my feelings while I’m steady sending checks,
Guess I learned that love and loyalty don’t always intersect.
Now I’m guarded like the Pentagon, walls up, reinforced,
Every promise that you made feel like lies, of course.
Said you’d ride ’til the wheels fell off — switched course,
Now I’m driving on my own, same pain, new force.
⸻
(Bridge)
Heart don’t trust, mind don’t sleep,
Trying not to drown while the wounds run deep.
If love’s a promise that nobody keeps,
Then maybe I’m better off losing than falling too steep.
⸻
(Hook)
’Cause every time I love, I break,
And every time I trust, it fades.
Why you make forever feel fake?
Now I’m tryna heal from the mess you made.
I don’t wanna hurt no more,
But my heart don’t trust no more.
You left me out in the cold,
Now I’m numb down to my soul.
