Beneath Their Tears

You rewrote every page

of the history we made

To cover up the cracks

in your pride

Now you walk around the town

wearing safety like a crown While you bury what you did

deep inside

(hmmm) And you make yourself the target of the stones you threw

So nobody can point the blame back at you

How does love turn into poison in your hands?

When did my kindness become your defense?

You act like the one who was bruised and betrayed To justify

all of the hate that you made (oh-oh-oh)

I gave you my shelter,

you claimed it was a cage

To feed the anger that you keep

But painting me the monster

doesn't wash away your stain

It just helps you drift off to sleep

How does love turn into poison in your hands?

When did my kindness become your defense?

You act like the one who was bruised and betrayed To justify

all of the hate that you made (yeah,

you made

it)

But you know the truth (ahhh)

Behind the stories that you tell yourself You know the truth
