(Verse 1)
Eight years, that’s twenty-nine hundred days
I was lost in the smoke, blinded by the haze
I gave you my twenty, my energy, my light
Built a kingdom for a king who couldn’t even fight
I was the anchor, the engine, the drive
While you were just barely keeping the lie alive
I thought we were building a future, a home
But I was just standing in the garden alone.
​(Pre-Chorus)
I look back at the clock and it’s hollow and ticking
Thinking ‘bout the pockets and the wounds you were picking
Everything I had, I poured in the sink
While you were too busy not trying to think.
​(Chorus)
Eight years down the drain, yeah, I’m feeling the bruise
Wasted time on a man who couldn’t tie his own shoes
Twenty-two years old and still tripping on the lace
While I was busy trying to find us a place
Now you’re chasing a teenager, breaking the vow
But the mask finally slipped, yeah, I see you now.
​(Verse 2)
It wasn’t just the girl, it was the secrets in the dark
The twisted little games that left a permanent mark
Caught you stealing my toys, yeah, I know the truth
Trying to find yourself because you missed out on youth?
Checking your phone, saw the messages sent
Talking to men while I was paying the rent
A double life lived on a foundation of sand
You were never a partner, you were never a man.
​(Bridge)
The betrayal is heavy, the bass is real deep
Promises you made that you never could keep
A thief in the night, taking more than my heart
You took my security and tore it apart.
​(Verse 3)
I look in the mirror, see the years on my face
But I refuse to let the trauma take up the space
The house is quiet, the storm finally passed
I realized the shadows weren't built to last
I’m picking up the pieces, I’m clearing the floor
I don’t even recognize who I was before.
​(Outro)
But I look at her sleeping, so perfect and small
The only reason I’m glad that I gave it my all
Through the cheating, the lying, and the years of the pain
You’re the only drop of sun that came from the rain
Yeah, eight years wasted, a total disaster
But I got my daughter, and that’s all that matters.
