I should’ve known

We used to talk until the sunrise came
Laughing like nothing would ever change
You said my secrets were safe with you
I believed every word was true

I told you things I was scared to say
Pieces of me I kept locked away
But you kept doing the things that hurt
Like my feelings didn’t matter first

Pre-Chorus
I tried to tell you how I felt
But you never really listened

Chorus
I should’ve known from the start
You’d be the one to break my heart
You knew the lines I asked you not to cross
Still somehow I was the cost

Now I’m staring at the sky alone
Thinking ’bout the things I should’ve known
’Cause the friend I trusted the most
Is the one I had to let go

Verse 2
Now every memory feels so strange
Like someone slowly erased our names
The laughs we had, the time we shared
Don’t feel the same now you’re not there

You promised you would stay the same
Said you’d always feel my pain
But promises fade over time
And silence says more than goodbye

Pre-Chorus
I kept hoping you would see
What you were doing to me

Chorus
I should’ve known from the start
You’d be the one to break my heart
You knew the lines I asked you not to cross
Still somehow I was the cost

Now I’m staring at the sky alone
Thinking ’bout the things I should’ve known
’Cause the friend I trusted the most
Is the one I had to let go

Bridge (soft and emotional)
Maybe I held on too tight
Trying to keep our world alright
But you can’t fix a heart alone
I guess that’s something I should’ve known

Repeating Hook (the super sad part, like in In the Stars)
I should’ve known
When you laughed like nothing was wrong
I should’ve known
I was holding on alone

I should’ve known
Even when you said you cared
I should’ve known
You were never really there

Final Chorus (big emotional finish)
I should’ve known from the start
You’d leave these pieces of my heart
You knew the things that hurt me most
Still you let our friendship go

Now I’m looking at the stars tonight
Trying hard not to cry
’Cause the friend I trusted the most
Is the one I had to outgrow

I should’ve known…
Yeah, I should’ve knoooown…
