Why does the pain shock you?
You asked for this heartbreak
You begged for it with your eyes
with your hands
with your life
You opened the door when it knocked
You let it in
You lent it your ear when it spoke
You hugged its insecurities away
You healed it scars
You made it feel wanted
You made it stronger
You knew it was going to break you
So why does the pain shock you?
You asked for this heartbreak

Why does the pain shock you?
You asked for this heartbreak
You begged for it with your eyes
with your hands
with your life
You opened the door when it knocked
You let it in
You lent it your ear when it spoke
You hugged its insecurities away
You healed it scars
You made it feel wanted
You made it stronger
You knew it was going to break you
So why does the pain shock you?
You asked for this heartbreak
