[Verse]
I fell by the wayside like everyone else
I hate you, I hate you, I hate you but I was just kidding myself
Our every moment, I start to replace
'Cause now that they're gone, all I hear are the words that I needed to say

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you, you're like this
When shit don't go your way you needed me to fix it
And like me, I did
But I ran out of every reason

[Chorus]
Now suddenly you're asking for it back (Before you go)
Yeah, you could say you miss all that we had (Was there something I could've said to make your heart beat better?)
But I don't really care how bad it hurts (If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather)
So, before you go (You broke me first)

[Verse]
Took a while, was in denial when I first heard
That you moved on quicker than I could've ever
You know that hurt
Swear, for a while I would stare at my phone
Just to see your name
But now that it's there, I don't really know what to say

[Pre-Chorus]
When you hurt under the surface
Like troubled water running cold
Well, time can heal but this won't

[Chorus]
So, before you go
Yeah, you could say we miss all that we had
But I don't really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first
You broke me first (Before you go)
Was there something I could've said
To make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go (You broke me first)

[Bridge]
Would we be better off by now? (What did you think would happen?)
If I'd have let my walls come down? (What did you think would happen?)
Maybe, I guess we'll never know (I'll never let you have it)
You know, you know (What did you think would happen?)

[Chorus]
Now suddenly you're asking for it back (Before you go)
Was there something I could've said to make your heart beat better?
But I don't really care how bad it hurts (If only I had known you were the storm to weather)
When you broke me first (So)
You broke me first
Was there something I could've said to make your heart beat better? (You broke me first, uh)
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go
