Don't Be Surprised
You stole my sadness and made me happy
You made me feel as if your word revolved around me
I don’t open my heart, I don’t let them in
But you were my everything
You were my first, my last, my whole world
You took away my demons in a whirl
But you stole my happiness and left me nothing
You made me realize that all along you were bluffing
So don’t be surprised when I walk away
I’m done forgiving every lie that you say
Don’t be surprised when I stop saying your name
I’m done with you and your cruel games
Don’t be surprised when I break down
My tears aren’t the only things crashing all around
Don’t be surprised if we never again meet
Because I’m done just sitting here kissing your feet
And don’t be surprised if I stop saying I love you
Because you broke me, oh, you broke me in two
You shattered my heart, I hit the ground hard
But I still loved you with every broken shard
You hurt me every day and you never cared
And when you wanted me, you expected me to be there
So don’t be surprised when I walk away
I’m done forgiving every lie that you say
Don’t be surprised if I stop saying your name
I’m done with you and your cruel games
Don’t be surprised when I break down
My tears aren’t the only things crashing all around
Don’t be surprised if we never again meet
Because I’m done just sitting here kissing your feet
And don’t be surprised if I stop saying I love you
Because you broke me, oh, you broke me in two
You broke me, but I’ll break you too
