House Arrest

You showed up broken, mascara and scars

Said the whole damn world had dealt you bad cards

I pulled you close like you were mine to save

Didn’t see I was digging my own grave

You cried in my arms, swore I was home

Said every other man left you alone

I believed every trembling breath you took

But the devil was hiding behind that look

I was your shelter in the pouring rain

You were just learning how to hide the pain

You were cheating while you swore you loved me

Lying while you were touching me

Leading me down roads that never were real

Just teaching my heart how betrayal feels

I stayed by your side through the worst of it

Even when you were stuck on house arrest

But the moment those shackles came undone

You disappeared into the dark and run

Like I was nothing in your story’s end

Like I was never even more than a friend

You walked away without a single tear

And left me bleeding right here

Your phone would light in the dead of night

You’d turn away and kill the light

Said it was nothing, just friends you knew

But shadows don’t lie the way you do

I remember the silence after the fights

How your eyes went cold like winter nights

Somewhere between love and your escape

I realized I was just your mistake

I was the fool who stayed too long

While you perfected every wrong

You were cheating while you swore you loved me

Lying while you were touching me

Leading me down roads that never were real

Just teaching my heart how betrayal feels

I stayed by your side through the worst of it

Even when you were stuck on house arrest

But the moment those shackles came undone

You disappeared into the dark and run

Like I was nothing in your story’s end

Like I was never even more than a friend

You walked away without a single tear

And left me bleeding right here

Now the nights feel colder than before

Your ghost still haunts my bedroom floor

Every promise echoes like a crime

Every memory doing time

You were cheating while you swore you loved me

Lying while you were touching me

Leading me on just long enough

To watch my whole damn world erupt

I stayed by your side through the worst of it

Even when you were stuck on house arrest

But the second your freedom finally came

You burned my heart and left the flame

Like I was never even real

Like my love was nothing you could feel

You walked away into the night

And left me alone with the fight

ALLIE HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!!!!?
