[Intro]
I don't mean to tear you apart
But I hit a nerve
Last night you weren't sleeping
I didn't mean to hurt you (x2)
[Verse 1]
Another time I might have been more open
With the things that I was feeling
But I was never one for sharing
Taken out of context was the meaning
Of our whole relationship
And now I must be leaving
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't mean to tear you apart
But I hit a nerve
Last night you weren't sleeping...
I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't mean to hurt you
The choices that I make
Are mine to live with
I didn't want to argue...
That's why I never told you
[Chorus]
That's why I never told you
What I was really up to
And now we haven't spoken
Since, you and I, we're broken
[Bridge]
So there you were...
You closed your eyes...
You had to know that I was lying
I won't be back this time, please
Try to understand...
I don't want to know what you were dreaming...
Don't want to know what you were seeing...
Cause then I'll know what I've been missing
[Chorus]
[Outro]
I don't mean to tear you apart
But I hit a nerve
Last night you weren't sleeping
I didn't mean to hurt you
