Hit me
Rip up our memories
Control the narrative

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

Take my heart right out my chest
Tell me that you hate me despite that I think your the best
Hurt me in every imaginable way
But I'll still love you till my dying day

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

I remember being hurt when you gave me your snap
Cause you forgot to delete messages that you forgot you had
That was my chance to say goodbye
But my love for you was so strong I forgave you before I even blinked my eye

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

I remember being hurt when you ripped up our pictures
Every time you were mad a memory destroyed.
Our pictures, our love notes, our stories to give our children.
Destroyed at the hands of the person that regretted making them.

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

I remember being hurt when I looked at your phone that night
You swore it was an accident, then you swore it was a friend that made you, then you swore you forgot to tell me you re-downloaded snap and your friend told you it was good for you, then you swore it would never happen again

LIE, LIE, LIE
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

The second time I found it you said it was to make me jealous
The truth is that this time I knew it would be endless
My hope for us to be happy together was fading
But my love for you never stopped for debating.

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

Ill never forget when you threw away our book of memories
That book meant more to me than a stash full of treasuries
All of the happy times gone in an instant
Killed my heart but It was nothing compared to what was coming in the distance

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

The night you did what you did it broke me
It felt like my life was going to come and choke me
I loved you with my whole heart
You were my everything from the moment we had our start

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

The next morning I woke up hoping you would feel bad
But my heart was shattered when I found out you were leaving all that we had
I begged and cried all week
I traveled 14 hours finding the right words to speak
Your heart was cold and it turned to stone
So I returned home broken and alone

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

I'm 21 and I'm dying inside
Fighting my depression and hoping I can hide
Hide from my feelings that will never stop falling to the ground as a wingless dove
Hide from the fact that you'll always be my love. But you...

Lie, lie, lie
The truth is you were always going to say goodbye

Looking back I wonder if anything you said was true
But the worst lie you ever said was that "I do"
