​i put you first, and you did too (as written)
[Verse 1]
One, two, three
I've been doing my best, trying to make sense of it
We both know, baby, you were all talk and I fell for it
Every day again and again people abuse my kindness
But what I didn't expect is you'd be the one behind it

[Chorus]
But you know you made it look so easy
Acting like you loved me just to leave me
Nothing could prepare me for what I thought you'd never do
And you know it made you look so crazy
Saying that you wanted to protect me
From all of the people that hurt me likе you do
Cause I put you first, and you did too

[Verse 2]
I've been doing my best, writing my own conclusions
Trying to copе with how you could go, leave with no warning
Taking my time, saying I'm fine, but who am I kidding
When all that I have is confidence that you were not ready

[Chorus]
But you know you made it look so easy
Acting like you loved me just to leave me
Nothing could prepare me for what I thought you'd never do
And you know it made you look so crazy
Saying that you wanted to protect me
From all of the people that hurt me like you do
Cause I put you first, and you did too
[Bridge]
And all of our fights about who loves who most, I won
At least I'll sleep tonight knowing I never loved you

[Chorus]
But you know you made it look so easy
Acting like you loved me just to leave me
Nothing could prepare me for what I thought you'd never do
And you know it made you look so crazy
Saying that you wanted to protect me
From all of the people that hurt me like you do
And I know we come from different places
Never tried to change, we just embraced it
Now I see I had a lot in common with you
Cause I put you first, and you did too
