Lyrics
{Verse 1}
So unexpected
The way that we ended
Your sun was shinin'
For a different direction
I was stuck livin' inside
My own version of hell
Because you found your heaven
In somebody else
I had to live through it
To know you went through it
Thought it was me
I felt so goddamn stupid
I was the cost
Of the purchase
That I didn't get
The collateral damage
And I'll understand
{Pre-chorus}
Now I
Recognize
That you were a victim
That wore a disguise
Wish that I
Could turn back time
Maybe I'd even apologize
{Chorus}
Cause I
Look at him how you
Looked at her
I think of love, say a different word
I wish that I knew how much this hurts
Back when I took it personal
{Verse 2}
If the world was perfect
I would've heard it
Inside your voice when
You said you were hurtin'
We know it's not so I sprinted
To my own defense
No, I didn't consider
That you were upset
And I've got this habit
To make things about me
I try and I change
But I get so distracted
I heard somebody sayin'
It takes 21 days
But it took just a moment
To see my mistakes
{Chorus}
Cause I
Look at him how you
Looked at her
I think of love, say a different word
I wish that I knew how much this hurts
Back when I took it personal
{Bridge}
You looked at her how
I look at him
You think of love, say a different thing
You never meant for all this to hurt
I'm sorry I took it personal
{Outro}
I'm sorry I took it personal
I'm sorry I took it personal
I'm sorry I took it, I took it
Ooh
Cause I look at him how
You looked at her
I think of love, say a different word
I wish that you could see how this burns
Oh, cause I took it personal
