Verse 1
I used to wait by my phone all night
Hoping your name would make things right
But every message felt cold somehow
And I barely recognize myself now
You turned my heart into a war
Then blamed me for what you started before
I kept giving chances you never deserved
While my whole world slowly burned
Pre-Chorus
I was loyal through every lie
Stayed even when you made me cry
But I’m exhausted from holding on
To someone already gone
Chorus
’Cause love shouldn’t hurt like this
Shouldn’t leave me feeling worthless
Shouldn’t make me lose my sleep
Wondering why I’m not enough to keep
You say you care, then disappear
Leave me drowning in my fear
And I can’t keep dying for a love
That only hurts me when it’s near
Verse 2
I made excuses for your mistakes
Pretended my heart could handle the pain
But bruised hearts eventually learn
Some fires aren’t worth the burn
And now the mirror tells the truth
I lost myself trying to love you
But I’m slowly finding who I was
Before your chaos became my blood
Pre-Chorus
I know leaving will still ache
But staying is my bigger break
So tonight I let you go
Even if it hurts my soul
Chorus
’Cause love shouldn’t hurt like this
Shouldn’t leave me feeling worthless
Shouldn’t make me lose my sleep
Wondering why I’m not enough to keep
You say you care, then disappear
Leave me drowning in my fear
And I can’t keep dying for a love
That only hurts me when it’s near
Bridge
Maybe healing starts with goodbye
Maybe freedom starts the night you cry
Maybe broken hearts survive
The second they decide
Final Chorus
No, love shouldn’t hurt like this
I deserve more than toxicness
More than tears and empty words
More than waiting just to hurt
And even if I still want you
I finally know what I must do
Walk away and let this end
Before your love destroys me again.
