I was blind
Blinded by an innocence that vanished
Along with you
I won't deny
Your actions wounded me
When you were through with me, I couldn't accept the truth

Feel the salt sting in my open hands
The burn reminds me what I can withstand
And I can handle your backhand though
I've just got to know

How did this happen to me?
I wanted to believe every word you said
But I'll just let it be
I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead

So the lesson I've learned, who do we really know?
No one lets the truth be shown, we find out the hard way
You think a person's changed but people don't change
They're always the same, you never knew all along they were that way
Though my disappointment shows I only wanna know

How did this happen to me?
I wanted to believe every word you said
But I'll just let it be
I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead

You may already be dead
I needed you
I needed you there
I needed you
You weren't there

How did this happen to me?
I wanted to believe every word you said
But I'll just let it be
I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead

How did this happen to me? (Needed you)
I wanted to believe every word you said
But I'll just let it be (Needed you)
I'll let you go on pretending that you're dead

You may already be dead
But I have the right to know
