[Verse 1]
I said I would never change, I would never leave you
Told you I would never lie, you said, "I believe you"
That's when everything was clearer, back when shit was see-through
Then murky waters came to part us, now you're in my rearview

[Pre-Chorus]
And I ran, and I fell, something like your tears do
And I know you tried to tell me, but I couldn't hear you
Girl, it never should've ended like that

[Chorus]
Okay, sending long texts, getting long texts back
Shadows in my head that made my heart turn black
Turned a couple stones I could never turn back
You said some things to me I shoulda never said back
Okay, sending long texts, getting long texts back
Shadows in my head that made my heart turn black
Turned a couple stones I could never turn back
You said some things to me I shoulda never said back
I shoulda never said— (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
Okay, it's coming to me heavy now, the solitude I carry 'round
Is busting through the levy now, and every now and then
I think about you just to get me 'round the bend, ah, yeah (You, you keep me)
[Pre-Chorus]
You keep me burning to the end, ah (Ooh, it never—), ah
Yeah, the end, ah, yeah
And I can't get you out my head, ah (Ooh, it never—)
Girl, it never should've ended like that

[Chorus]
Okay, sending long texts, getting long texts back
Shadows in my head that made my heart turn black
Turned a couple stones I could never turn back
You said some things to me I shoulda never said back
Okay, sending long texts, getting long texts back
Shadows in my head that made my heart turn black
Turned a couple stones I could never turn back
You said some things to me I shoulda never said back
I shoulda never said—

[Bridge]
And this is how I feel right here, look

[Outro]
Ooh, it never should've ended like that
