Why did I love you {Verse 1} You built a house for me out of your own good days Painted the walls in colors meant to chase away my gray I slept in your sunlight, tried to absorb your peace Praying your quiet mind would make my chaos cease But the storm inside my chest doesn't care about your roof It keeps tearing through the drywall, looking for proof {Chorus} So why did I love you? I thought your gravity could finally anchor my feet Why did I love you? I thought your voice could drown out my own self-defeat But you can’t hold up a ceiling when the foundation is cracked You can’t give me the pieces that I already lacked I wanted u to save me from the dark that I knew Oh, why did I love you? {Verse 2} You stay up tracing the map of my scars Acting like if you hold me close enough, they’ll turn into stars You look so defeated when I look right through your face Like it’s your fault your warmth can’t fix a freezing cold space But you’re a ghost hunter trying to clear out an empty room Pouring all your water on a garden that won't bloom {Chorus} So why did I love you? I thought your gravity could finally anchor my feet Why did I love you? I thought your voice could drown out my own self-defeat But you can’t hold up a ceiling when the foundation is cracked You can’t give me the pieces that I already lacked I wanted u to save me from the dark that I knew Oh, why did I love you? {Bridge} Because it’s a beautiful trap to think a person is a home! It’s a beautiful lie to think I wouldn't feel alone! I demanded a miracle that you could never give! I wanted your hands to teach my heavy heart how to live! But you’re just a person, and I’m still a mess! And putting it all on you just leaves us both with less! It leaves us with nothing... {Chorus} So why did I love you? I thought your gravity could finally anchor my feet Why did I love you? I wanted a rescue, but it’s a one-way street You can’t hold up a ceiling when the foundation is cracked You can’t give me the pieces that I already lacked I needed a savior, but that wasn't your job to do {Outro} Yeah, that's why I loved you? I wanted you to do the work I couldn't do myself. But I have to stand on my own now. I have to fix this myself.
