[Verse 1]

Just know that I'll never hate you

You need your time away and I just can't await you

I think that you're stronger than most, but you fell below

I told you my secrets that nobody knows

I can't be your hero, there's too much to save

I've fell down to zero, I've dug my own grave

Well I hope I never see you again

We'll walk by like strangers and we'll play pretend (Oh, woah)


[Pre-Chorus]

You could say you're sorry, but things wouldn't change

We could be friends, but it's just not the same

You broke down my walls

You tore me to pieces

I'vе been through it all


[Chorus]

I, hated you, stated to went on thosе dates with you

Waited to play it through, I can't relate to you now (No)

I was high off the ground

But you brought me down


[Verse 2]

You're in the mirror, fightin' for life (Ooh)

You're all by yourself now

When you cope, picking up a fight

'Cause I know you too well

You'll realize the self doubts and find out the hell (Oh)

The same thing as always, 'cause I


[Pre-Chorus]

I guess you could say you're sorry, but things wouldn't change

We could be friends, but it's just not the same

You broke down my walls

You tore me to pieces

I've been through it all


[Chorus]

I, hated you, stated to went on those dates with you

Waited to play it through, I can't relate to you now

I was high off the ground

But you brought me down (Woah, yeah)


[Outro]

Yeah, yeah

No, oh-yeah-yeah

Tell me, girl, would you know

(Would you know)

Baby, oh-woah

No, oh-yeah

“I can’t be your hero, there’s too much to save I’ve fell down to zero, I’ve dug my own grave”

“I can’t be your hero…fell down to zero” is taken from the idiom and trope “from hero to zero”. Starfall reverses the idea, showing that while he used to be an important figure for the song’s subject, they would likely never talk again; going from “hero” to “zero”.
