lyrics

This was meant to happen
I was meant to do without
It was an optical illusion
But I see it now

A twisting in my vision
An uneasiness I feel
Still working on the strength
'Cause I don't know how to heal

Sometimes I can't see a sign
When it's blinking in my face
With a flashing light
I missed the signal on a dark highway
You said you'd go ahead
But told me to stay
You hurt me but I loved you anyway

Some peril breaks my spirit
An aching fills my soul
I'd like for you to leave, but
I don't want to let you go

Sometimes I can't see a sign
When it's blinking in my face
With a flashing light
I missed the signal on a dark highway
You said you'd go ahead
But told me to stay
You hurt me but I loved you anyway

I don't want to tell
You anymore lies
They're getting so hard to conceal
And I don't want to spend
Another lonely night with you
Denying how I feel
And I don't wan't to have
Another conversation
Where we don't know what to say

'Cause you hurt me but I loved you
You hurt me but I loved you
You hurt me but I still love you anyway

Sometimes I can't see a sign
When it's blinking in my face
With a flashing light
I missed the signal on a dark highway
You said you'd go ahead
But you told me to stay
You hurt me but I loved you
You hurt me but I loved you
You hurt me but I still love you anyway
