You never took my side,
never let me shine.
It was never the truth.
Lies, lies.
You made me believe
that you'll never leave.
I thought I had nothing to lose.
Why? Why?
Now here I am, singing the blues.
But I wanna thank you for letting me down
'cause I won't fall as hard the next time around.
Life isn't fair and you taught me to suffer the scars.
I wanna thank you for breaking my heart.
I let you inside.
I treated you kind.
I waited for you
every time and time.
And I should've known
I'd be better alone
but loving was new.
I was blind, blind
Now here I am, singing the blues.
But I wanna thank you for letting me down
'cause I won't fall as hard the next time around.
I know life isn't fair and you taught me to suffer the scars,
so I wanna thank you for breaking my heart.
If you hadn't left me hurting so bad,
no, I'd never know how strong I am.
I wouldn't be ready to meet somebody new,
a real man.
I wanna thank you for letting me down
'cause I won't fall as hard the next time around.
I know life isn't fair and you taught me to suffer the scars.
I wanna thank you for breaking my heart.
I wanna thank you for breaking my heart.
