This is a story about betrayal
Why's it always happen without fail?
Why'd you have to go and run us off the rails?
What the hell? This isn't how I pictured you and I
Smile in my face while you twist the knife
Shame on me if you fool me twice
You fooled me twice, yeah
Even though I hate you
How come leaving ain't as easy
As loving you, as loving you?

One day, you just got up and left
Left me right here just to clean up your mess
Not one phone call, not even a text
That's the last damn thing I would ever expect
And, no, I've never felt so used
And all I got from you

How come leaving ain't as easy
As loving you, as loving you?
How come leaving ain't as easy

Giving you the time that I can't get back, I can't get back
And standing by your side in the photographs, photographs
Gave you a life that I shouldn't have, shouldn't have
I wish it wasn't true when it comes to me and you
