Verse 1 I remember when you were my safe place Now I don’t recognize your face You used to look at me like home Now I’m sleepin’ next to someone gone I fought for us, I begged, I stayed Made excuses for your mistakes But love don’t survive on maybes And I’m tired of tryin’ to save you Pre-Chorus You said it wasn’t what it seemed Said it was the drugs, not you and me But every lie chipped love away Till there was nothin’ left to say Chorus You cheated on my heart, then numbed the pain Chose temporary highs over my name I waited for you to come back clean But you kept choosing everything but me Now I look at you and I don’t feel us Just scars where there used to be trust I didn’t stop loving you overnight I lost you piece by piece to what you chose Verse 2 I used to worry if you were okay Now I worry why I still stayed You promised change like it was real But words don’t heal what actions kill I learned to smile while breaking down While you were chasing another round I tried to be your solid ground But you kept sinkin’ and pulled me down Pre-Chorus I blamed myself for all your wrongs Thought love meant holdin’ on this long But love ain’t losin’ who you are Tryin’ to fix somebody’s scars Chorus You cheated on my heart, then numbed the pain Chose temporary highs over my name I waited for you to come back clean But you kept choosing everything but me Now I look at you and I don’t feel us Just scars where there used to be trust I didn’t stop loving you overnight I lost you piece by piece to what you chose Bridge (Quiet, Honest) I still hope you heal someday Just not with me along the way I forgive you, but I’m done I can’t love who you’ve become I miss the you before the lies Before the pills, before the nights But missing you don’t mean I stay I finally chose myself today Final Chorus (Stripped, Emotional) You cheated on my soul, then lost control And I can’t drown to save us both I prayed for change, I begged for truth But you were gone before I knew Now I’m walkin’ away with tears and pride I survived lovin’ you this time I didn’t fail, I didn’t lose I just let go of what you chose Outro If love ever comes back to you I hope it’s clean, I hope it’s true As for me, I’m learnin’ how To love myself without you now
