You said, āI didnāt wanna hurt you,ā
But you did it anyway.
You said, āI still care,ā
Then slowly pulled away.
I replay every message,
Every word you left unsent,
While you made up your mind ā
I was the last to know it ended.
[Pre-Chorus]
You said, āItās not you, itās me,ā
Like thatās supposed to make it clean.
But all those half-truths you whispered
Cut deeper than they seem.
[Chorus]
You couldāve just said that,
Instead of making me believe.
You said, āIāll always be there,ā
Then you disappeared on me.
You gave me hope and called it āspace,ā
Watched me d***n while you walked away.
If you were done, why hide behind that?
You couldāve just said that.
[Verse 2]
āFive minutes a day isnāt hanging out,ā
I said it, and now I know what thatās about.
You blamed your family, blamed the rules,
But truth is ā you just stopped choosing me, too.
[Pre-Chorus]
You said, āMaybe one day youāll understand,ā
But I donāt want your someday plan.
You didnāt f***t, you didnāt stay ā
You just slowly slipped away.
[Chorus]
You couldāve just said that,
Instead of letting me believe.
You said, āI didnāt lose interest,ā
But you sure stopped loving me.
I cared too much, you cared too late,
Now Iām the one left holding weight.
If you were gone, why act like you had my back?
You couldāve just said that.
[Bridge]
I was never asking for perfect,
Just honesty, just real.
But you fed me empty promises,
And called that how you feel.
You said, āIf things were differentā¦ā
Thatās just another way to run.
You canāt say āforeverā
Then decide youāre done.
[Final Chorus]
You couldāve just said that,
Instead of playing pretend.
You said, āI still care,ā
But this is how it ends.
Iām tired of your almost-love,
Of crying for what never was.
I gave you everything I had ā
You couldāve just said that.
[Outro]
Now Iām not waiting for your call,
Iām not breaking anymore.
You said you didnāt wanna hurt me ā
But Iāve been bleeding since you swore
Youād always care.
You couldāve just said that.
