Fault

(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.
