about

This song is a song of loss and pain. It depicts the feeling after a heartbreak.

lyrics

Naive
1 verse
My heart is waiting for the break
I knew this day would come
But I never fully pictured myself
When all was said and done

From months of time and energy
I put toward me and you
You took that hope
And you took that trust
And you went for something new

Pre-chorus
Oh….What can I say
Why did you do me that way?

Chorus
And now…
Why did I ever trust you
Your words were just a lure
To hook my naïve heart
And how…
Could you just easily turn away
Without an ounce of apology
I guess I really had you wrong
So long, so long

2nd verse
My world was finally making sense
My heart was moving on
The pain had slowly melted away
I thought I had you gone

But then I saw the two of you
Your hands were intertwined
I wrote my heart, then ripped up the page
And the hurt was underlined

Pre-chorus
Oh….What can I say
Why did you do me that way?

Chorus
And now…
Why did I ever trust you
Your words were just a lure
To hook my naive heart
And how….
Could you just easily turn away
Without an ounce of apology
I guess I really had you wrong
So long, so long

Bridge

You took my heart and you threw it away
Just like a sorry in a bad cliché
I try to fight it, but my thoughts always betray me
I try to go to a sunnier place, and get a little bit of inner space,
But then, you got me crying again….crying, crying…

Chorus
And now…
Why did I ever trust you
Your words were just a lure
To hook my naive heart
And how…
Could you just easily turn away
Without an ounce of apology
I guess I really had you wrong
