Over from the Start
Hollow Point Heroes Lyrics

How does it feel to have crushed a heart?
What does it feel like to have caused so much pain and heartbreak?

How does it feel to have lied from the start?
What does it feel like now that the truth is finally out, and you've been caught in your lies?

I can't get past The first day we met
The memory of our first meeting is stuck in my mind, and I can't move on from it.

I thought I was something I'd never regret
At the time, I believed that being with you was going to be the best decision I ever made - but now I realize I was wrong.

And it's heart breaking What you meant to me Squeezing this heart as it burst in your fist Bloody dripping blood From your finger tips
The pain of losing you is so intense that it feels physical, as though my heart is being crushed and bleeding out.

And now that you've killed me Will you wash your hands free of this blood today I still feel the same
Even though you've hurt me so badly, you're trying to walk away from this relationship without taking any responsibility for what you've done.

How am I supposed to feel I feel like nothing is real You've brought me You've brought me down to my knees And now you tell me that you're leaving You never gave a reason I should've known right from the start Cause that's just how you are
I feel lost and confused, wondering what was real and what was just a lie. You've hurt me so much that I can't stand on my own two feet, but you're leaving anyway without giving any explanation. Deep down, I knew from the beginning that you were going to hurt me - it's just who you are.

Now that I've made you a line in a song I have to tell you that I'm moving on I'm better off than I was before I know you want me to settle the score But my words for you Aren't worth wasting my breath With my heart in your hands You've crushed it to death
I've turned our relationship into a song, but that's all you'll ever be to me now. I'm done living in the past and dealing with the pain you caused - I'm moving on to a better future without you. You may want me to fight back and make you pay for what you did, but I know that my words won't make a difference. You've hurt me too much, and now my heart is dead because of you.

Of all the things I know And the feelings I've shown It never seems to add up And it doesn't even matter now And the day we stepped apart You wanted to be so far from me It's always been what you wanted
Looking back on our relationship, everything seems so confusing and contradictory. None of our emotions or actions ever made sense, and now it doesn't matter anyway because we're over. The day we broke up, you were eager to put as much distance between us as possible - which is what you've always wanted.

How am I supposed to feel I feel like nothing is real You've brought me You've brought me down to my knees And now you tell me that you're leaving You never gave a reason I should've known right from the start Cause that's just how you are How you are
Repeating the chorus, the singer emphasizes that they are still confused and heartbroken. They feel like they're living in a world where nothing is real, and they're unable to stand up for themselves against the person who's hurt them so much. Even though they should have seen the signs from the beginning, it's hard to accept that there was nothing they could do to stop this from happening - because that's just who their partner is.
