[Intro]
Tiptoe quiet, don’t breathe too loud,
(one step… two steps… hush…)
One wrong word, and you’ll break the vow.
(hold it in… don’t speak now…)
“Don’t upset me,” — yeah, I know that sound,
Another day walking eggshells around.
(so quiet… don’t break…)
[Verse 1]
You said it’s love — feels more like fear,
(oh… fear…)
Every look, I disappear.
You twist the truth till I’m the blame,
(why’d you lie?)
You break me soft, then say my name.
(say my name…)
You call me crazy when I cry,
(cry, cry…)
Say it’s love while you make me lie.
And I still say “sorry” when you shout,
(just stop…)
Just to keep the fire from coming out.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every bruise is hidden deep, (not seen, but I feel it…)
I lost my voice, I lost my spark,
You kept me small inside the dark.
(inside the dark…)
[Chorus]
I walk on eggshells — they crack, I bleed,
(crack, bleed…)
You call that love, but it’s your need.
You hold the keys, I pay the cost,
(lost, lost…)
In your arms, I’m found and lost.
You call it care — I call it control,
(control me? no…)
You drained my heart, rewrote my soul.
This isn’t love — it’s your design,
(you broke me…)
You broke my wings — but not my mind.
(not my mind…)
[Verse 2]
You check my phone, my tone, my friends,
(so paranoid…)
Built a cage and called it “home.”
You say you’d die if I walk away,
(you liar…)
But you’re the one killing me each day.
[Pre-Chorus]
I forgot what peace feels like,
(so tired…)
Every day’s another fight.
You made me scared to breathe too loud —
But I’m done now, I’m taking ground.
(yeah, taking ground…)
[Chorus]
I walk on eggshells — they crack, I bleed,
(crack, bleed, scream…)
You call that love, but it’s your need.
You hold the keys, I pay the cost,
(you lost me…)
In your arms, I’m found and lost.
You call it care — I call it control,
(no more control…)
You drained my heart, rewrote my soul.
This isn’t love — it’s your design,
You broke my wings — but not my mind.
(still alive…)
[Bridge]
You said you’d change — you never do.
(never will…)
You said “it’s me,” but it’s all you.
You made me small, but I still see —
You don’t own what’s left of me.
(you don’t own me…)
I’m done being quiet, done being kind,
(done…)
You don’t get to cage my mind.
Your love’s a lie I won’t defend —
This story breaks — I’m the end.
(I’m the end…)
[Chorus]
No more eggshells, no more pain,
(yeah, no more pain…)
I’m done with fear, I’m done with lies,
(phoenix rising…)
This phoenix doesn’t apologize.
You call it love — I call it crime,
(you’re guilty…)
You stole my years — not my spine.
I’m walking out — alive, defined,
(defined, alive…)
You broke my world — but not my mind.
[Outro]
Tiptoe quiet… no more sound.
(quiet… gone…)
I walk away — unbound.
(yeah… I’m free…)
Your echo fades, your power dies…
I’m free.
Goodbye.
(bye… bye…)
