Lyrics:

There
Is not a single word
In the whole world
That could describe the hurt
The dullest knife just sawing back and forth
And ripping through the softess skin
There ever was, how were you to know?
Oh, how were you to know?

And I
I hate to see your heart break
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close but I've been there
Before [x2]

Love
Happens all the time
To people who aren't kind
And heroes who are blind
Expecting perfect scripted movie scenes
Who wants an awkward silent mystery? How were you to know?
Oh, how were you to know?
Oh
Oh

And I
I hate to see your heart break
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close but I've been there
Before [x2]

For all the air that's in your lungs
For all the joy that is to come
For all the things that you're
Alive
To feel
Just let the pain remind
You hearts
Can heal
Oh, how were you to know? (how were you to know?)
Oh, how were you to know?

And I
I hate to see your heart break
I hate to see your eyes get darker as they close but I've been there
Before [x2]
