Cuz the scars will still be here when the tears are dry

Did by you right, but you've been bruised
-Can't overcome lies that you're used to
-If you will despise my love for you
-Now I'm confused
Feeling confused about the partner's intentions and sincerity.
Cuz you said you
Referencing the partner's false promise to start anew, expressing doubt and disappointment.
Were ready to
-Start a new, but that ain't true

-For you
-See I, shoulda known, shoulda known better
Regretting not recognizing warning signs, feeling alone and emotionally depleted, with a fading desire for love.
To dive in when it's lukewarm
-And I, shoulda known, shoulda known better
-To bare every bit of my soul

-But now I'm, skin and bones, feeling pathetic
-Appetite for love is long gone
-You shoulda warned a nigga
