True Crime

Could've sworn you were the one
With the way that you made me feel weightless
And Lord knows that I came undone
You took the pain in my heart and defaced it
Then you caught me off guard
Left me standin' there broken
Thought I knew who you were
God, I don't understand it
Straight out of a movie scene
I thought that was you and me
I thought that was us
Said that you could be mine, play your cards right
Under blankets of stars, drunken sleepless nights
I hate that I saw forever in your eyes
You stole my heart, and you ran like a true crime
Now I lay here awake, wonderin' where'd you go?
And did you ever feel the same, guess I'll never know
I hate that I saw forever in your lies
You stole my heart, and you ran like a true crime
Then you caught me off guard
Left me standin' there broken
Now I can't even go to the southside
'Cause I fear that I'll run into you
And it's safe to say I'm losin' my damn mind
Nothin' feels like it used to
When did it get so hard
Oh, to let go and move on?
I don't know where to start
How did I get it so wrong?
Still stuck in a movie scene
Where it's only you and me
Yeah, it's only us
Said that you could be mine, play your cards right
Under blankets of stars, drunken sleepless nights
I hate that I saw forever in your eyes
You stole my heart, and you ran like a true crime
Now I lay here awake, wonderin' where'd you go?
And did you ever feel the same, guess I'll never know
I hate that I saw forever in your lies
You stole my heart, and you ran like a true crime
Left me standin' there broken
Said that you could be mine, play your cards right
Under blankets of stars, drunken sleepless nights
I hate that I saw forever in your eyes
You stole my heart, and you ran (like a true crime)
Now I lay here awake, wonderin' where'd you go? (Oh)
And did you ever feel the same, guess I'll never know (I'll never know)
I hate that I saw forever in your lies (oh)
You stole my heart, and you ran like a true crime
Then you caught me off guard
Left me standin' there broken (oh)
Thought I knew who you were
You stole my heart, and you ran like a true crime
