I Saw the Messages

Verse

Packed your bags up by the door

Said I can't do this anymore

Blamed it on the scars from way back when

Said my heart just couldn't mend

But I held back the real reason why

The cold, hard truth I saw in your eyes

Was the glowin' of your telephone screen

The bitterest words I've ever seen

Chorus

'Cause I saw the messages, I read every single line

You swore that you were different,You swore that you were different, said you were truly mine

You called me up cryin', beggin' me to stay

But a love built on lies has to end today

This ain't a mistake, girl, this ain't fixable this time, no, not this time

Verse

You said you were a hundred, that you had turned a page

Said you'd never put me back inside that cage

And for a second, I almost believed

the sound

Of your desperate voice as tears were comin' down

But I played back the script I saw in black and white

The plans you made with him late in the night

Chorus

'Cause I saw the messages, I read every single line

You swore that you were different, said you were truly mineCause I saw the messages, I read every single line

You swore that you were different, said you were truly mine

You called me up cryin', beggin' me to stay

But a love built on lies has to end today

This ain't a mistake, girl, this ain't fixable this time, no, not this time

Bridge

That's when I told you, I finally let it go

"I saw the texts, and now I really know."

The silence hit so hard, it nearly knocked me down

Your whole fairy tale came crashing to the ground

Outro

Yeah, I saw the messages...

This ain't fixable this time...

So I'm walkin' away... and I'm gonna be fine.

Goodbye.
