I tried to be what you needed, I bent till I almost broke Every silence you left behind still echoes louder than words you spoke I tried to be what you needed, I bent till I almost broke Every silence you left behind still echoes Louder than words you spoke (words you spoke) So go ahead, hate me if you want Say my name like it's your truth I gave you everything I had And you still walked out like you had nothing to lose Yeah, go ahead, hate me tonight (night, night) If that's what helps you breathe But don't pretend you didn't feel every part Of me you chose to leave (chose to leave) I tried to be what you needed, I bent till I almost broke Every silence you left behind still echoes Louder than words you spoke (words you spoke) So go ahead, hate me if you want Say my name like it's your truth I gave you everything I had And you still walked out like you had nothing to lose I won't beg you to stay I won't rewrite the pain I'm learning how to stand in the wreckage of your blame If hating me keeps you warm, then hold on to that flame I'll be fine learning who I am without you saying my name So go ahead, hate me if you want Say my name like it's your truth I gave you everything I had And you still walked out like you had nothing to lose
