[Intro] I don't mean to tear you apart But I hit a nerve Last night you weren't sleeping I didn't mean to hurt you (x2) [Verse 1] Another time I might have been more open With the things that I was feeling But I was never one for sharing Taken out of context was the meaning Of our whole relationship And now I must be leaving [Pre-Chorus] I don't mean to tear you apart But I hit a nerve Last night you weren't sleeping... I didn't mean to hurt you I didn't mean to hurt you The choices that I make Are mine to live with I didn't want to argue... That's why I never told you
[Chorus] That's why I never told you What I was really up to And now we haven't spoken Since, you and I, we're broken [Bridge] So there you were... You closed your eyes... You had to know that I was lying I won't be back this time, please Try to understand... I don't want to know what you were dreaming... Don't want to know what you were seeing... Cause then I'll know what I've been missing [Chorus] [Outro] I don't mean to tear you apart But I hit a nerve Last night you weren't sleeping I didn't mean to hurt you
