Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You left me blue in the rain

Still I read every trace

Your silence had a name

I kept it on my tongue

I learned your storm by heart

Counted the cracks in your voice

I held the broken parts

Like they were mine to choose

[Pre-Chorus]

Tell me why I stayed

When the cut still burned

Tell me why I prayed

For the blade to turn

I kept asking what

I was supposed to lose

Was it love, was it trust

Was it me or you?

[Chorus]

I tried to understand you

While you were breaking me

I tried to understand you

(understand you)

Love can be a hard truth

When it tastes like grief

I tried to understand you

(understand you)

[Verse 2]

You came home all cold

With a thousand miles in your eyes

I said "take my hand"

You said "don't ask me why"

I wore your weight like chains

Made your pain my own

Now I see the shape

Of the place I called home

[Pre-Chorus]

Tell me why I stayed

When the cut still burned

Tell me why I prayed

For the blade to turn

I kept asking what

I was supposed to lose

Was it love, was it trust

Was it me or you?

[Chorus]

I tried to understand you

While you were breaking me

I tried to understand you

(understand you)

Love can be a hard truth

When it tastes like grief

I tried to understand you

(understand you)

[Bridge]

Maybe I was brave

Maybe I was lost

Maybe I mistook

Pain for being wanted

I won't call it fate

If it kept me small

And called that devotion

[Final Chorus]

I tried to understand you

While you were breaking me

I tried to understand you

(understand you)

Now I choose my heartbeat

Over your repeating need

I tried to understand you

(understand you)
