Verse 1
I held the blame like it was mine to keep,
Built us a home where you’d rather sleep.
In fires I didn’t start, I burned alone,
You lit the match, then turned to stone.
Pre-Chorus
Every “sorry” you never meant,
Was a weapon dressed in innocence.
I bent 'til I broke — still you said I was cruel,
While you rewrote the script and made me the fool.
Chorus
You called me a narcissist, said I was blind,
But I saw the truth in the games you designed.
Tore out my heart just to claim you were hurt,
Then danced on the ashes and laughed through the dirt.
You wore the mask, played the part,
Twisted my love into your poison art.
I gave you my soul — you gave me a cage,
Then lit it with lies and walked off the stage
Verse 2
You cried on cue, then dried your tears,
Told your friends your made-up fears.
You framed me in a shattered frame,
Then signed your name beneath my shame.
Pre-Chorus
I never needed to win the war,
Just wanted peace, but you needed more.
You fed me silence with a sugar-coated grin,
Then asked why I wasn’t strong enough to begin.
Chorus
You called me a narcissist, said I was blind,
But I saw the truth in the games you designed.
Tore out my heart just to claim you were hurt,
Then danced on the ashes and laughed through the dirt.
You wore the mask, played the part,
Twisted my love into your poison art.
I gave you my soul — you gave me a cage,
Then lit it with lies and walked off the stage.
Bridge
Now you're the hero of your tale,
Telling stories where I always fail.
But in your mirror, if you ever look long —
You’ll see the villain, humming your song.
Final Chorus (stripped down)
You called me a narcissist, said I was blind,
But it’s your reflection that you couldn’t find.
I gave you my soul — you gave me a cage,
Now I’m walking away... off your stage.
