This Was Never Love

That was the table we sat when I poured my heart out to you

That was the seat you said nothing the way that you always do

Cracks turned to shards

Rubble to dust

Til there was nothing left to glue

And it was sad

Sad how you left

Me with the hardest part to do

This was never love

This was never love

Mmm

I feel full colour and all that you do is in monochrome

Blind to my shame and the pressure the first time we were alone

You're made of wood

But I can be fire

I can be ice and glass and stone

You buried your head

Cos you were a coward

Left me to face it on my own

This was never love

This was never love

I kept all my heart

It still broke apart

Broke apart

Stare through the window at ghosts of us there in our faded hue

There was a time in my life when I thought that I hated you

But wounds turn to scars

Faded old marks

Marks that you barely feel no more

And looking back

It's hard to tell

What all my tears were wasted for

Sitting at home

Dusk at the beach

Cos you know she would hurt the worst

And I got your note

And I left it unread

Cos now at last I put me first

This was never love

This was never love

I kept all my heart

It still broke apart

Oh yeah

This was never love

This was never love

I kept all my heart

It still broke apart

Broke apart
