How could you?
Yeah... how could you?
You said you'd stay, you'd never leave
But now you're gone, it's hard to breathe
All the promises, all the lies
Fell apart right before my eyes
Thought we were stronger, thought we were real
But you turned away, made me feel-
Like I was nothing, just in your way
Now I'm left with nothing to say
How could you break me like that?
How could you just turn your back?
I gave you everything I had
Now I'm here picking up the slack
How could you?
You played me close, I let you in
Now I'm drowning in where you've been
Was it a game, was it a joke?
The words you said, they made me choke
I thought we'd last, I thought we'd fight
But you let go without a light
Left me in shadows, left me in tears
I'm still haunted by all my fears
How could you break me like that?
How could you just turn your back?
I gave you everything I had
Now I'm here picking up the slack
How could you?
I was blind, yeah, I was fooled
Thought I knew you, but I was schooled
All the love, it fades to dust
How could you just kill the trust?
How could you break me like that?
How could you just turn your back?
I gave you everything I had
Now I'm here picking up the slack
How could you?
How could you?
How could you?
