I Meant It

You used to paint me pictures
All alone we would sit by the lake
You never wasted a moment
Telling me just what you think

Then, oh, this changed
You were never what you claimed

And how can you stand to fake it?
When you know it's my heart you're breaking
You left me that day
I needed to grow
And how can you stand to chance it?
When you know it's my soul, you wrecked it
I'm leaving you now
Alone I go

I said I would, I meant it

I wanted to move to L.A
But this is your home, you wanted to stay
We never talked about it ending
And only our future, you said this was our time

To just hold on
And maybe I held too long

And how can you stand to fake it?
When you know it's my heart you're breaking
You left me that day
I needed to grow
And how can you stand to chance it?
When you know it's my soul, you wrecked it
I'm leaving you now
Alone I go

I said I would

And what are we thinking
I never thought this would be us, I still miss you
Oh, yeah
And oh, hey, yeah

How can you stand to fake it?
When you know it's my heart you're breaking
You left me that day
I needed to grow
And how can you stand to chance it?
When you know it's my soul, you wrecked it
I'm leaving you now
Alone I go

I said I would, I meant it
