Verse 1
Think back to that moment,
when your voice cracked just a bit.
You said, “Don’t do this, you’ll regret it,”
think you already knew you’d lose it.
You thought I’d stop,
that I’d turn around,
but I just smiled and burned it down.
You made your point, then pushed too far,
and now you’re wishing on my scars.
Pre Chorus
You swore I’d cry, you swore I’d break,
but I found freedom in the ache.
Guess you never thought I’d walk away.
Chorus
You said, “Don’t do this, you’ll regret it.”
But baby, I don’t regret it.
Maybe all along you knew,
you’d feel the hurt you put me through.
That final push, that final shove,
you thought it’d kill me to walk away.
You directed and you mismanaged,
but I survived your mortal damage.
Verse 2
Now you’re haunted by your own advice,
like a ghost in your own game.
You tried to write my ending twice,
but I rewrote it in my name.
Every what if that you whisper,
just echoes what I already knew.
You warned me not to burn the bridge,
but it’s you who misses the view.
Bridge
I took your words, I made them mine,
I built a fire out of every line.
Left your “how two” book with highlighted proof,
that your way was a highway I couldn’t choose.
Chorus Reprise
You said, “Don’t do this, you’ll regret it.”
But baby, I don’t regret it.
Maybe all along you knew,
you’d feel the hurt you put me through.
That final push, that final sting,
you lost the best of everything.
You directed and you mismanaged,
but I survived your mortal damage.
Outro
You said I’d regret it…
but I rewrote it in my name.
My story,
my world,
my name.
