I Never Meant It
Girard
I Never Meant It
(Verse 1)
I said the words that you wanted to hear,
Made you believe that I held you dear.
But deep inside, I was lying the whole time,
Pretending to love you, pretending you were mine.
I held your hand and looked in your eyes,
But behind my smile, there were only goodbyes.
I played the part, I wore the mask,
But now I’m left to face the truth at last.
(Pre-Chorus)
I never meant it, the things I said,
I never meant it, now I’m filled with regret.
I built you up, only to tear you apart,
I never meant it, not from the start.
(Chorus)
I never meant it, the love I showed,
I never meant it, it was all a heavy load.
I lied to you, and now I see,
That the love I gave was never meant to be.
I never meant it, no, I never did,
I never meant it, but I kept you hid.
Now I’m left with this broken heart,
I never meant it, now we’re worlds apart.
(Verse 2)
You gave me your trust, gave me your all,
But I was never there when you started to fall.
I kissed you softly, but my heart was cold,
I told you I’d love you, but the truth was sold.
You deserved more than what I could give,
But I led you on, pretending we’d live.
Now I’m standing here, watching you go,
And I’m left with nothing but the truth I know.
(Pre-Chorus)
I never meant it, the things I said,
I never meant it, now I’m filled with regret.
I built you up, only to tear you apart,
I never meant it, not from the start.
(Chorus)
I never meant it, the love I showed,
I never meant it, it was all a heavy load.
I lied to you, and now I see,
That the love I gave was never meant to be.
I never meant it, no, I never did,
I never meant it, but I kept you hid.
Now I’m left with this broken heart,
I never meant it, now we’re worlds apart.
(Bridge)
I’m sorry for the pain, sorry for the lies,
Sorry for the love that never reached the skies.
I took your heart and gave you false hope,
But I never meant it, I never learned to cope.
(Chorus)
I never meant it, the love I showed,
I never meant it, it was all a heavy load.
I lied to you, and now I see,
That the love I gave was never meant to be.
I never meant it, no, I never did,
I never meant it, but I kept you hid.
Now I’m left with this broken heart,
I never meant it, now we’re worlds apart.
(Outro)
I never meant it, I never meant it,
Now I’m left with the truth, and I regret it.
I never meant it, I never meant a word,
Now you’re gone, and the silence is all I’ve heard.
This song expresses the painful confession of never truly loving someone, even though the actions and words gave them false hope.
