You never took my side
never let me shine
it was never the truth
Lies, lies

You made me believe that you'll never leave
I thought I had nothing to lose
Why, why
Now here I am, singing the blues

But I wanna thank you for letting me down
Cause I won't fall as hard the next time around
Life isn't fair when you taught me to suffer the scars
But I wanna thank you for breaking my heart

I let you inside
I treated you kind
I wait for you every time and time
And I should've known I'd be better alone
But loving was new
I was blind, blind
Now here I am, singing the blues

But I wanna thank you for letting me down
Cause I won't fall as hard the next time around
I know life isn't fair when you taught me to suffer the scars
But I wanna thank you for breaking my heart

If you hadn't left me hurting so bad
No, I'd never know how strong I am
I wouldn't be ready to meet somebody new:
A real man

But I wanna thank you for letting me down
Cause I won't fall as hard the next time around
I know life isn't fair, and you taught me to suffer the scars
But I wanna thank you for breaking my heart

I wanna thank you for breaking my heart
