Don't look back in anger
You're still a child, just above 25
You should be out every night and fuck whoever you like
Don't you look so sad now
I won't forget how you got me wet
We had a moments, I won't deny that
I know it hurts
The first cut's always the deepest
I know it hurts
And it feels like dying slowly
I know it burns
But I promise it's gonna get better
I know it hurts
I know it hurts
The first cut's always the worst
What you want from me now?
You threw a dart right through my heart
Now you wanna be friends but we never was
You don't owe me nothing
Just don't be a dick, texting me shit like how you want back your money
Don't do me like that
I know it hurts
The first cut's always the deepest
I know it hurts
And it feels like dying slowly
I know it burns
But I promise it's gonna get better
I know it hurts
I know it hurts
The first cut's always the worst
I used to cry myself to sleep
Every night I used to dream about you
I used to think about your eyes and how they looked right into mine
I did
Every person I met, every hand I held
I could picture you and how yours felt
I used to miss you all the time
I haven't missed you for a while
I'm alright now, oh yeah
I know it hurts
The first cut's always the deepest
I know it hurts
And it feels like dying slowly
I know it burns
But I promise it's gonna get better
I know it hurts
I know it hurts
The first cut's always the worst
