Wishing I Never Did What I Did [Terzanelle]

I swore I'd never regret loving you,
But life was never that easy on me;
I'm broken-hearted and I don't know what to do.

I am so much better than I used to be -
Yet the pain bares down on my tattered soul;
But life was never that easy on me.

Incomplete, I'm trying to mend the gaping hole -
But my heart probably doesn't deserve that,
Yet the pain bares down on my tattered soul.

You were all I wanted and all I had ever lacked,
And you loved me, once upon a time -
But my heart probably doesn't deserve that.

I'm just wishing that you'd come back; I'd be fine -
But deep down, I'm just a broken-hearted kid -
And you loved me, once upon a time.

I'm wishing I never did what I did -
But deep down, I'm just a broken-hearted kid -
I swore I'd never regret loving you;
I'm broken-hearted and I don't know what to do.
