[Intro — Soft, tired, honest]
I’m tired…
Not angry anymore… just tired.
I loved you the way you asked me to…
And you still wanted more.
[Verse 1 — Confessional, drained]
I did it your way, every time
Bit my tongue just to keep the peace
I shrunk myself to fit your moods
Called it love when it was just control over me
You needed praise like oxygen
But never saw me drowning there
Every boundary I tried to set
You crossed it, then acted unaware
I stayed loyal through the chaos
You called it passion, I called it pain
I kept believing in your words
While your actions stayed the same
[Pre-Chorus — Realization]
You weren’t broken…
You were comfortable breaking me.
[Chorus — Strong, resolved]
I’m done repeating hurt
I’m done bleeding just to feel chosen
You fed on my devotion
Then blamed me when I was broken
You wanted control, not love
You wanted power, not trust
And I’m finally walking away
With my heart still mine… still enough
No more toxic love
No more fixing what won’t change
I’m healing every wound you left
And I’m never looking back again
[Verse 2 — Truth, betrayal]
You called me crazy when I questioned
But my instincts were never wrong
You were cheating with my day one
Smiling in my face all along
Two knives in the same wound
Both cut deeper than I knew
I cut you both off clean
That was the first thing I did for me
You loved being admired
You loved being needed
But when I needed safety
You disappeared and gaslit
You were a narcissist in disguise
Always the victim, never the blame
And I confused your intensity
With something real, something sacred
[Pre-Chorus — Growth]
I see you clearly now
And clarity doesn’t hurt like love did.
[Chorus — Bigger, empowered]
I’m done repeating hurt
I’m done begging to be enough
You drained me until I was empty
Then asked why I wasn’t in love
You wanted control, not love
You wanted loyalty without truth
But I choose peace over chaos now
I choose me… I refuse you
No more toxic love
No more cycles, no more chains
I’m healing every wound you left
And I’m never looking back again
[Bridge — Quiet strength, almost spoken]
I don’t hate you…
I just don’t miss who I was with you.
I forgive myself
For staying too long
For loving too hard
For confusing survival with devotion
This isn’t bitterness…
This is freedom.
[Final Chorus — Calm but final]
I’m done repeating hurt
I learned my lesson in the pain
I won’t chase love that costs my soul
Or call control a different name
You don’t get access anymore
You don’t get to pull my strings
My heart is healing quietly
And that’s the loudest thing
No more toxic love
No more trying to be chosen
I walked away whole this time
And that’s how I know I’ve healed it
[Outro — Soft, resolved]
I loved you…
But I love myself more now.
