Lyrics
How could you leave someone so suddenly
How could you forget all the good memories
Life was in colour now it's black and white
Gave you my all but you left overnight
Glass is half empty now was once half full
Days once full of light are now forever dull
Would wish you the best but I just don't know how to feel
Guess all that we had just wasn't real

You said that you needed space for a while
Guess you were fine without seeing my smile again
Guess you were never a friend

Tired of all the lies after we split
I know that I didn't deserve it
How could you be so cruel and cold-hearted
Cause I needed so much more than that
You know my life is like fighting in combat
Why would you do that
How could you do that

Millions of dreams we shared together
Too young and foolish to believe in forever
Always wanted what was best for you
Wish I could say you wanted that for me but it ain't true
Took all of my stuff from your house the other day
Saw our photos were all hidden away
You moved on after a weekend
Hence all the messages you didn't send

You said that you needed space for a while
Guess you were fine without seeing my smile again
Guess you where never a friend

Tired of all the lies after we split
I know that I didn't deserve it
How could you be so cruel and cold-hearted
Cause I needed so much more than that
You know my life is like fighting in combat
Why would you do that
How could you do that

Tired of all the lies after we split
Oh how could you do this
Oh how could you do this

Tired of all the lies after we split
I know that I didn't deserve it
How could you be so cruel and cold-hearted
Cause I needed so much more than that
You know my life is like fighting in combat
Why would you do that
How could you do that

How could you leave someone so suddenly
How could you forget all the good memories
Life was in colour now it's black and white
Gave you my all but you left overnight
