"Oh babe, I didn't mean to make you cry"
That's what you say to me every night
I'm stuck as the one to decide if this will break me
You know me, I never let it go too far
Because I couldn't picture us apart
Then you go and just break my heart
You say "to save me"
I can't really believe that you would dare to leave like that
I guess I thought you'd fight for me
Oh we knew, we knew that we'd never last
We were young, no clue, we didn't have a chance
But I've known your parents since I was a kid
I still wear your t-shirt when I go to bed
Oh, it's dumb that I want it back
Wasn't love, we weren't capable of that
'Cause we were so good at the fighting it seemed
But you never fought for me
I'm tired of your entitlement
Expect the world to fall in your hands
But once, we were just making plans
And you were made for me
We were at a karaoke party
I didn't know anybody
I saw you, and this will break me
I can't really believe that you would dare to leave like that
I guess I thought you'd fight for me
Oh we knew, we knew that we'd never last
We were young, no clue, we didn't have a chance
But I've known your parents since I was a kid
I still wear your t-shirt when I go to bed
Oh, it's dumb that I want it back
Wasn't love, we weren't capable of that
'Cause we were so good at the fighting it seemed
But you never fought for me
Sixteen, no cares, every weekend
We would talk, we would fight, lots of feeling
I was there when you laughed or were bleeding
Thought I loved you, didn't know the meaning
You knew all of my pain and my secrets
Ammunition you fired at my weakest
I still gave you all that you needed
But all the fighting stops when I'm leaving
Oh we knew, we knew that we'd never last
We were young, no clue, we didn't have a chance
But I've known your parents since I was a kid
I still wear your t-shirt when I go to bed
Oh, it's dumb that I want it back
Wasn't love, we weren't capable of that
'Cause we were so good at the fighting it seemed
But you never fought for me (You never fought for me)
Sixteen, no cares, every weekend
We would talk, we would fight, lots of feeling
(I was there, I was there)
I was there when you laughed or were bleeding
But you never fought for me
