lyrics

You’re gonna wish, your name wasn’t a sound
That could fall from his lips,
And lift you right up off the ground.

You’re gonna wish, that you never fell at all
You’re gonna wish, your heart didn’t weigh
You down like a cannonball.

You’re going to believe
Every word he says is true
Till you’re left with nothing but
The shadows of what you knew.

You’re gonna hurt
Hearts were made to break.
If anybody tells you ‘love is all you need’
That’s your first mistake

You’re gonna wish, your name wasn’t a sound
That could fall from his lips,
And lift you right up off the ground.
