I Wasn’t Listening” — (Logan’s Reply)

Verse 1 You took a chance, you took a shot Thinking I was safe somehow I thought I could handle fire Without burning us down You said you weren’t bulletproof And I should’ve understood But I kept swinging words around Like they never would Pre-Chorus I told you that I loved you Then I let my temper lead Like winning every argument Was what I really need Chorus You needed me like a heartbeat And I gave you a storm Left you running for cover Instead of keeping you warm Yeah, here’s to me and my temper I remember that night I saw your face when it broke And I knew I wasn’t right You asked me why And I didn’t answer Now I know Verse 2 Why did I make you feel smaller So I could feel tall? Why did I shoot down your dreams Like they weren’t worth it at all? Truth is, I was scared Of not being enough So I turned every conversation Into something rough Pre-Chorus You asked me for steady love I handed you pride instead Every time you reached for me I pushed you back instead Chorus You needed me like a heartbeat And I acted bulletproof Like your hurt didn’t matter Like I had nothing to lose Here’s to me and my temper And the things I said wrong You weren’t weak for walking You were strong Bridge (The Turning Point) You stepped back. You let me go. You told me you weren’t bulletproof— And now I know. Love isn’t surviving the hits. It’s choosing not to throw them. Final Chorus (Lower / Accountability) You needed me like a heartbeat Not a battlefield Not someone who bruised you Just to prove what he feels So here’s to me finally learning What I should’ve known If I ever love you again It won’t sound like a warzone Outro You weren’t fragile. You were honest. And I wasn’t listening.
