“I’m not going to sit here and explain what the song is about because first of all like we all fucking know what it’s about, and that’s not something I’m comfortable talking about at all.

[Verse 1]
You said you were sober
So I let you come over
Your words pulled me closer
But your words fuck me over
I kept on denyin'
So you kept on tryin'
You went too far for closure
Too far fucked me over
[Chorus]
I could just lie here, say, "It's okay"
When I wanna rip all the doors off this place
Set it on fire and just walk away
So I can feel anything else but this weight
'Cause I let you in when I needed space
And you crossed a line when I pushed you away
How could you? How could you?
[Verse 2]
Oh, I more than regret you
You'vе convinced yourself I let you
Thе better version of me never met you
Never let you in my bedroom
Oh, all those shitty lines and crooked blinds
And cheap red wine stains
Threaten suicide to change my mind
And keep me afraid
[Chorus]
You want me to lie here, and say, "It's okay"
When I wanna rip all the doors off this place
Set it on fire and just walk away
So I can feel anything else but this weight
'Cause I let you in when I needed space
And you crossed a line when I pushed you away
How could you? How could you?
[Outro]
I once loved a liar
'Cause he knew my name
Would rewrite the story
And make me to blame
How could you?
