Lyrics
Oh, it hurts the most 'cause I don't know the cause
Maybe I shouldn't have cried when you left and told me not to wait
Oh, it kills the most to say that I still care
Now I'm left tryna rewind the times you held and kissed me there

I wonder if you're thinking, "Is she alright all alone?"
I wonder if you tried to call, but couldn't find your phone
Have I ever crossed your thoughts because your name's all over mine
A moment in time, don't watch me cry
A moment in time, don't watch me cry

I'm not cryin' 'cause you left me on my own
I'm not cryin' 'cause you left me with no warning
I'm just cryin' 'cause I can't escape what could've been
Are you aware when you set me free
All I can do is let my heart bleed?

Oh, it's harder when you can't see through the thoughts
Not that I wanna get in, but I want to see how your mind works
No, it's harder when they don't know what they've done
Thinking it's best that they leave, meaning that I'll have to move on

Oh, I wonder if you're thinking, "Is she alright all alone?"
I wonder if you tried to call, but couldn't find your phone
Have I ever crossed your thoughts because your name's all over mine
A moment in time, don't watch me cry
A moment in time, don't watch me cry

I'm not cryin' 'cause you left me on my own
I'm not cryin' 'cause you left me with no warning
I'm just cryin' 'cause I can't escape what could've been
Are you aware when you set me free
All I can do is let my heart bleed?
