Verse 1
You Looked Me In The Eyes And Said,
“It’s Only A Break, Not The End.”
You Told Me We’d Find Our Way,
So Why’d You Walk Away?
A Few Nights Before, I Asked, “We’re Good?”
You Smiled And Said, “Yeah, Of Course.”
I Fell Asleep Believing You,
Then Everything Just Changed Too Soon.
Pre-Chorus
You Said, “I Just Need Time.”
I Held Onto Every Line.
I Waited Where You Left My Heart,
While You Tore It All Apart.
Chorus
Why’d You Get My Hopes Up?
Why’d You Tell Me Not To Give Up?
You Said It Was Only A Break,
Now I’m Wondering What Was Fake.
You Walked Out Without A Word,
Left Me Hanging Onto What I Heard.
Then All At Once, You Shut Me Out,
Like Loving Me Was Full Of Doubt.
Couldn’t Even Tell Me Yourself,
You Let Somebody Else Do It.
If You Knew You Didn’t Want Us...
Why’d You Get My Hopes Up?
Verse 2
First You Said That You Missed Me,
Then You Wanted Nothing To Do With Me.
How’d Your Whole Heart Change So Fast?
Was I That Easy To Leave Behind?
I Still Read Your Message Back,
Looking For The Boy I Had.
The One Who Said We’d Be Okay,
Not The One Who Walked Away.
Bridge
I Could’ve Handled The Truth,
Even If It Broke Me Too.
But You Gave Me Hope To Hold,
While You Were Letting Go.
Now All That’s Left Is Empty Space,
Questions That I Can’t Erase.
If Goodbye Was Always In Your Mind...
Why’d You Waste All Of My Time?
Final Chorus
Why’d You Get My Hopes Up?
Why’d You Make Me Believe In Us?
You Said We’d Only Need Some Time,
Now You’re Gone Without Goodbye.
You Left Me Talking To The Silence,
While You Disappeared From My Life.
If You Never Planned On Coming Back...
Why’d You Get My Hopes Up?
[Outro] (Slow)
If You Already Knew...
If Your Heart Was Giving Up...
Then Why...
Why’d You Get My Hopes Up?
