[Verse 01]

They’re cuttin’ her up on the operatin’ table, but it wasn’t enough

The front desk pages, it’s a call for the ages
They couldn’t save her, they couldn’t save her

The surgeon said, “She had a hole in her heart
But it wasn’t her fault, it was there from the start”

Tryin’ to love you through an open wound
‘Cause everythin’ I put inside there just fell right through

And I hold the parts together with some pressure and glue

And you’re runnin’ in slow-mo to the hospital room

If you only knew
How bad it hurt me too

[Chorus]

So now you can take the money, you can get on a plane

To a beautiful island, build her house in my name
You can donate all the money to somebody in pain

And you can rest your head down and not feel any shame

( I never loved you ) x2
I never loved you in vain

[Verse 02]

They’re sewin’ me shut
Openin’ the doors and then removin’ their gloves

Taking the long way to the end of the hallway
They couldn’t save her, they couldn’t save her

Told the nurses that we argued a lot
And you’re ramblin’ on about the last time we fought

You drove off screamin’ on the night you were caught

You left me standin’ in the parkin’ lot
I took off chasin’ you down Route 22

‘Cause you never listened, and I’m terrible too
You kept on drivin’ far away from the issues
If you stopped, I would’ve kissed you

[Chorus]

So now you can take the money, you can get on a plane

To a beautiful island, build her house in my name
You can donate all the money to somebody in pain

And you can rest your head down and not feel any shame

( I never loved you ) x2
I never loved you in vain

[Bridge]

Flash of light, heat of fire
Head on concrete and the screechin’ of tires

Sound of sirens, rush of pain
I almost thought I heard you call my name

[Chorus]

So now you can take the money, you can get on a plane

To a beautiful island, build her house in my name
You can donate all the money to somebody in pain

And you can rest your head down and not feel any shame

( I never loved you ) x2
I never loved you in vain
