[Verse 1]
I loved you like my blood
Like you lived in my chest
I gave you all my softness
You gave me your best guess
I held your name too long
On the tip of my tongue
Now every little promise
Feels like a wound that won
[Pre-Chorus]
I stayed too close to hurt
I stepped too far to heal
The truth was in your eyes
You never felt what I feel
[Chorus]
I gotta walk away
Even if it breaks me down
Better lonely on my own
Than loved and lost around
I loved you to death
But you never loved me back
So I’m saving what’s left
From this heart attack
[Verse 2]
We sat in the same room
Still miles apart
You were there in body
But never in my heart
And every time you smiled
I felt that bitter pull
Like holding on to water
Trying to keep a cup full
[Pre-Chorus]
I stayed too close to hurt
I stepped too far to heal
The truth was in your eyes
You never felt what I feel
[Chorus]
I gotta walk away
Even if it breaks me down
Better lonely on my own
Than loved and lost around
I loved you to death
But you never loved me back
So I’m saving what’s left
From this heart attack
[Bridge]
This is my self-battle
Me and my shadow in the hall
One side still wants to call you
One side wants to let it fall
I hate that I still miss you
I hate that I still stay
But love should not feel smaller
When you give it all away
[Final Chorus]
I gotta walk away
Even if it breaks me down
Better lonely on my own
Than loved and lost around
I loved you to death
But you never loved me back
So I’m saving what’s left
From this heart attack
I gotta walk away
I gotta walk away
Yeah, I loved you to death
Now I’m learning how to stay
