From Bleeding to Burning

Verse 1 (Pain)

I held the door when you walked away

Still prayed you’d come back, still begged you to stay

I slept with silence next to my chest

Loved you deeper than you ever did, I guess

Pre-Chorus (Pain)

I learned your distance by heart

It hurts the most when it’s quiet and dark

Chorus (Pain)

I loved you too deep

You stayed on the edge

I gave you my heart

You gave me the end

I stayed through the cracks

You ran when it hurt

I loved you too deep

And it shattered my worth

Verse 2 (Transition)

I made excuses for your lies

Called them fear, called them time

I broke myself to make you whole

Bled my truth just to play your role

Pre-Chorus (Turning Point)

But pain gets loud when it stays too long

And I’m done being weak, I’m done being wrong

Chorus 2 (Anger)

You don’t get to hurt me twice

Don’t get to wear my sacrifice

I survived every word you threw

I rose from loving someone like you

You wanted power, not my soul

Now I’m done paying for your control

Bridge (Raw / Explosive)

I was never yours to ruin

Never yours to leave behind

I found my voice in the damage

You lost me — every time

Break (quiet, emotional)

There’s still a scar beneath my skin

But it doesn’t mean you win

Final Chorus (Pain + Anger)

I loved you too deep — that part is true

But I learned my strength from losing you

You don’t get to hurt me twice

I turned my tears into fire tonight

I’m not your ghost, not your regret

I’m the scar you can’t forget

Outro

I stopped bleeding for you.

Now I burn for myself.
