Use to be love

You said forever like it cost you nothing

Whispered promises, while you were bluffing

I was a fire, burning just for you

But you were cold, and I never knew

You looked me in the eye, straight-faced lies

While her name was written in your alibis

I gave you trust like sacred ground

You tore it up without a sound

You used me, broke me, left me bleeding

Took all my love, then gave me leaving

I was your fool, your backup plan

Your soft place to fall when it hit the fan

You cheated, lied, and watched me drown

While I kept trying to hold you down

But that was never love

Just a weapon you held above

What we had…

Was just what you used to have

You called it fate, but played pretend

Said "I’m yours" — while in someone else’s bed

I blamed myself for what you lacked

Carried your sins upon my back

I loved you hard, you loved my pain

Made me question my own name

I begged for truth you’d never give

While teaching me how not to live

You used me, broke me, left me bleeding

Took all my love, then gave me leaving

I was your light, you pulled the shade

Sucked me dry and walked away

You cheated, lied, and watched me fall

Then said I was too much after all

That wasn’t love, that was control

A hollow kiss, a black-hole soul

But I'm not the pieces that you dropped

I'm more than all the lies you taught

One day you'll choke on your own game

While I rise, without your name

You used me, but I’m done believing

In someone who finds joy in deceiving

I gave you gold, you turned it black

But I’m not the one who’s looking back

You cheated, lied, but you lost me

Now I’m finally learning to breathe

It wasn’t love — just a cruel disguise

But I survived…

Yeah, I survived

(Outro)

You were poison dressed as touch

Now I know

That was never love
