Verse 1 – intimate]
You used to look at me
And tell me I was everything
You said I felt like home
When you felt all alone
We had a love that felt so right
But somehow just changed overnight
No warning, no goodbye
Just watching us pass by
[Pre-Chorus – building]
I could give myself a reason
To hate you for all that you did
I could tell myself I'm better off
But my heart won't let me quit
[Chorus – ]
You broke every rule there was to break
And I should hate you for my own sake
But I can't turn that cold.. No.
Even after all..
I'd let you win
(Yeah, I'd let you win)
Even after everything
[Verse 2 – emotional]
I could tell them you're the villain
I could tell them all you did
But that's not me
No, that's not who I wanna be
I could hold on to the anger
Yeah I could make you pay for it
But I'd only hurt myself
Trying to make you feel
[Chorus]
You broke every rule there was to break
And I should hate you for my own sake
But I can't turn that cold.. No.
Even after all...
I'd let you win
(Yeah, I'd let you win)
Even after everything
[Bridge – stripped back]
Maybe I'm too soft
Maybe that's just me
I can forgive you
But it will never disappear
[Final Chorus ]
You broke every rule there was to break
And I should hate you...
But I can't turn cold.
Even after all..
You broke every rule there was to break
And I should hate you for my own sake
But I can't turn that cold.. No.
Even after all
I'd let you win
(Yeah, I'd let you win)
Even after everything
