You only really know
When it's time to go
When it hurts you more to stay than leaving
It's not a time or place
It's not a perfect day
It's a feeling in your heart you can't escape

The way you hurt me, hurt me
It may haunt me, haunt me
But you can reach me like you use to
You don't need me, need me
Look at the way you treat me
You never care the way that I do

So was it ever love?
Was it ever love to you?
Was it just something you were holding on to?
Was it ever love?
Was it ever love to you?
Was it just a word you loved to use?
Was it, was it ever love, ever love, ever love?
Was it, was it ever love, ever love, ever love?

I tried to hold my breath
I tried to argue less
But even quiet moments feel like I'm screaming
I wanted you to change
I guess you didn't want the same
It's crazy how the heart can be so misleading

The way you hurt me, hurt me
It may haunt me, haunt me
But you can reach me like you use to
You don't need me, need me
Look at the way you treat me
You never care the way that I do

So was it ever love?
Was it ever love to you?
Was it just something you were holding on to?
Was it ever love?
Was it ever love to you?
Was it just a word you loved to use?
Was it, was it ever love, ever love, ever love?
Was it, was it ever love, ever love, ever love?
Was it, was it ever love, ever love, ever love?
