You Were Loved

lyrics

Oh I buried this hatchet several years ago.
Just outside of the city that I.. that I hated the most.
Now you’ve got your reason for a cold hearted stare.
I look passed your soul and straight into fear.

I’m leaving nothin’ to bring me back to you,
but I’m leaving somethin’ to let you know…

Every single verse still feels the same. I’ve been waiting years for that to change.
When your heart gives out and I am gone, I hope you remember that you were loved.
Yeah you were loved.

Oh you read all about it. I made it out I’m alive.
They put my heart back together with… with needles and ice.
Now you’ve got your reason for a cold hearted stare.
I look passed your soul and straight into fear.

I’m leaving nothin’ to bring me back to you,
but I’m leaving something to let you know…..

Every single verse still feels the same.
I’ve been waiting years for that to change.
When your heart gives out and I am gone,
I hope you remember that you were loved. Yeah you were loved.

Yeah. Every single verse still feels the same.
I’ve been waiting years for that to change.
When your heart gives out and I am gone,
I hope you remember that you were loved. Yeah you were loved.
