Healthy Breakup by Cathcart Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I fell in a love that was swell, but placed trust
In someone with a selfish nature
Decided you'd rather kiss someone else than stay cuffed
And I still don't know why the hell you gave up
I would always celebrate ya
You were never one for selfies, makeup, or healthy breakups
Though I wish we had one
Hoped we’d quit in tandem
I know ya didn't have fun
Throwing fits and tantrums
I thought it was “ti amo”, but it was the ammo
You were loading in a handgun
Holding it for ransom
And I guess I paid the price
Devastated, I’m tense, ya just
Decimated my sense of trust
Immensely, but I’m getting up
[Chorus]
I just wish it ended better than it did
I just wish it ended better than it did
We could’ve ended it on our own terms
We could’ve ended it on our own terms
Ooh, we could’ve had a healthy breakup
[Verse 2]
You would seldom say much
You could never tell me straight up
You were selling a drug
And I couldn't help but take one
Had my head spinning
Like a propeller blade does
And you would always welcome a hug
Near the end, swear I could dwell for days just
On how well we'd make love
And how it turned to just sex
Now you've turned to an ex
The route you swerved was suspect
And now we’re just a wreck
But I still reminisce
'Bout the worst and the best
How we were a success
And how it burdened the chest
The doubts it hurt to suppress
You should’ve known I was bound to learn of the mess
There were mounds of dirt to address
Countless flirts you confess
You were down with [bleep], possessed
And you ain’t proud, you’re sure you regret
How your mouths were touching
Blame it on some clouded judgement
I’m frowning, sure I’m upset
And you could put a thousand words in a text
It still wouldn’t reverse the profound, disturbing effect
And I’ve found it’s hurting much less
I’m now concerned with what's next
But I still
[Chorus]
I still / wish it ended better than it did
I just / wish it ended better than it did
We could’ve ended / it on our own terms
We could’ve ended / it on our own terms
Ooh, we could’ve had a healthy breakup
I fell in a love that was swell, but placed trust
In someone with a selfish nature
Decided you'd rather kiss someone else than stay cuffed
And I still don't know why the hell you gave up
I would always celebrate ya
You were never one for selfies, makeup, or healthy breakups
Though I wish we had one
Hoped we’d quit in tandem
I know ya didn't have fun
Throwing fits and tantrums
I thought it was “ti amo”, but it was the ammo
You were loading in a handgun
Holding it for ransom
And I guess I paid the price
Devastated, I’m tense, ya just
Decimated my sense of trust
Immensely, but I’m getting up
[Chorus]
I just wish it ended better than it did
I just wish it ended better than it did
We could’ve ended it on our own terms
We could’ve ended it on our own terms
Ooh, we could’ve had a healthy breakup
[Verse 2]
You would seldom say much
You could never tell me straight up
You were selling a drug
And I couldn't help but take one
