➥ Lyrics
We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain
We jumped, never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell
A love no one could deny

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

You came in like a wrecking ball
You never hit so hard in love
All you wanted was to break my walls
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

You came in like a wrecking ball
You never hit so hard in love
All you wanted was to break my walls
All you ever did was wreck me
You came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, You just closed your eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

You never meant to start a war
You just wanted me to let you in
But instead you used force
I guess I should've let you win
You never meant to start a war
You just wanted me to let you in
I guess I should've let you win

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you

You came in like a wrecking ball
You never hit so hard in love
All you wanted was to break my walls
All you ever did was wreck me
You came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, You just closed your eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

Yeah, you, you wreck me

I'm all emotional from how beautifully kind your comments are ❤
Thank youuu so much for listening to my music - I'm also trying my best to make it so I can release this song on Spotify/Apple Music etc!

[PorsheNichelle]

The "You just closed your eyes and swung" line shattered my heart.

[bluemuffin]

this honestly makes a lot more sense, as a kid I always thought the lyrics didn’t really line up

[moonpools]

I think what people are really responding to but haven’t articulated yet is what a exceptionally competent storyteller you are as a vocal performer.

[littlehedonist]

Thank you for singing this version for us. Being in an abusive relationship & trying to leave is an experience nobody really understands unless they have lived it.

[silvermoonshineX]

this version makes 1000 times more sense. Thanks for this awesome performance.

[friendly.felidae]

Oh. THIS is why the original always felt like it was missing something. One little change makes it make so much more sense.

[RaelynGarcia]

after being in a 2 year long abusive relationship, i never realized how much this song resonated. im so proud of myself for being saved by my family. even though i wish the guy the best and hope he's the happiest with his new woman, some thing still breaks in me when thinking of him

[breachcreaper]

As a victim of child abuse, this version hits some notes with me.

[lynnlee]

Just came here after the short reel on Insta. Found out this was uploaded like just 40 mins ago.
Listening on repeat now. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[marinaconroy]

Well someone's cutting onions.

What a powerful version of the song. I wish they didn't make those slight but significant changes. Thank you for singing the original version.

[Uufda]

The original lyrics and your performance take this from a catchy but lil bit confusing song into something deep, meaningful, and tragically beautiful.

[_ppcrn]

Riell's vocal quality is ABSOLUTELY UNMATCHED in this damn universe

[AmyLaPaix-hykv]

To all survivors, God Bless you. Leaving is possible, no matter how impossible it seems. You are so worthy. You are strong. It takes victims 7 attempts to leave an abusive relationship for good. You don’t have to do it alone. May God protect and cover you. ❤

We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain We jumped, never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell
A love no one could deny

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

You came in like a wrecking ball
You never hit so hard in love
All You wanted was to break my walls
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wrecked me

I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

You came in like a wrecking ball
You never hit so hard in love
All You wanted was to break my walls
All you ever did was wreck me
You came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, You just closed your eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wrecked me

You never meant to start a war
You just wanted me to let you in

I guess I should've let you win
You never meant to start a war
You just wanted me to let you in
I guess I should've let you win

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you

You came in like a wrecking ball
You never hit so hard in love
All You wanted was to break my walls
All you ever did was wreck me
You came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, You just closed your eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wrecked me

[gilmour]

Honestly this makes the song make so much more sense. Like it sounds like an actual story now

[Dmayamusic]

I am going on just over 4 years out of an abusive relationship, and I thought I'd heard all the songs that would make me cry. This is amazing, and now I'm going to try to see if I can do this on a karaoke night soon. Thank you so much for this!!

[JetRosay]

Saw the short clip on instagram so had to come listen to the full version. 10 out of 10. I prefer this version. You did amazing

[deniseploumis]

When she sang you closed your eyes and swung completely broke me 😢
