(Verse 1)
I ruined it, I let it all decay,
Out of fear that tomorrow might not go my way.
The future I once held so close in my mind,
Became a ghost I was too scared to find.
You stood by me, unwavering and true,
But I doubted the life I could promise you.
I chose to run when I should’ve stayed,
And now I’m left with the mess I’ve made.
(Chorus)
Now our love is just the past,
A fleeting flame I couldn’t grasp.
I closed the door, I turned away,
And left the words I couldn’t say.
I broke something pure, I tore us apart,
And now I’m drowning in my own shattered heart.
(Verse 2)
I see your face in the dreams I can’t shake,
A love so real, now lost in my wake.
You gave me your all, and I threw it aside,
Blinded by fear, consumed by my pride.
What was I so scared of? Why couldn’t I see,
That you were the one who completed me?
Now I’m stuck with the silence, the bitter truth,
That I killed what was beautiful in its youth.
(Chorus)
Now our love is just the past,
A fleeting flame I couldn’t grasp.
I closed the door, I turned away,
And left the words I couldn’t say.
I broke something pure, I tore us apart,
And now I’m drowning in my own shattered heart.
(Bridge)
I wish I could undo the choices I made,
The moments of doubt where I let love fade.
But the chapter is closed, the ink won’t dry,
And I’m left with the question of why.
Why did I fear what was so divine?
Why couldn’t I trust your hand in mine?
Now all I have is regret that won’t fade,
A love destroyed by the mistakes I made.
(Final Chorus)
Now our love is just the past,
A fleeting flame I couldn’t grasp.
I broke the vows, I let you go,
And now I’ll reap the pain I sow.
I shattered your heart, I tore us apart,
And now I’m left with this broken heart.
(Outro)
It’s all my fault, the blame is clear,
I lost the one I held so dear.
The love we had, now turned to dust,
A future undone by misplaced mistrust.
I’ll carry this weight for the rest of my days,
Regret my only companion in this endless haze.
