He Said Lyrics

I told him to leave me alone

There was too much damage

Told him that my heart was stone

Buried in a bandage

Told him pain was all I'd known

Carrying the baggage

Told him I'd be fine on my own

But he loved the challenge

And he said he wouldn't hurt me

He said he'd never break my heart

And he said I'd cried the last of my tears that night

He begged please believe in me

He said it's gonna work out this time

Ohhh

I told him I was getting scared

But he hadn't noticed

A little bit unprepared

He caught me at my lowest

There was darkness in the way he glared

Once he got me devoted

Asking him to show that he cared

He had alternative motives

But he said he wouldn't hurt me

He said he'd never break my heart

And he said I'd cried the last of my tears that night

He begged please believe in me

He said it's gonna work out this time

Oooh

But it turns out nothings simple

And that loves not black and white

Burning stars look like they twinkle

Then dead by morning light

He said he wouldn't hurt me

He said he'd never break my heart

Oohh

But he lied, he lied, lied, he lied

He told me lies

When he said he wouldn't hurt me

He said he'd never break my heart

And he said I'd cried the last of my tears that night

He begged please believe in me

He said it's gonna work out this time

Oh but he lied
