After All Those Years by Evourin - Zona

Lyrics

(Verse 1)

Six and a half years of holding on,

trying to fix what felt so wrong.

I gave you pieces of my soul

till I forgot what made me whole.

You took my light and called it love,

I kept on trying — never enough.

And every silence turned to stone,

I learned to stand this pain alone.

(Pre-Chorus)

I bent so far I almost broke,

lost myself in every word you spoke.

But somewhere in the quiet tear,

I finally learned to see it clear.

(Chorus)

’Cause after all those years of giving everything,

I watched my heart grow tired of the suffering.

You never saw the weight I carried in my chest —

you only took, you never cared for what was left.

And when the fire faded out, I disappeared…

I walked away, after all those years.

(Verse 2)

I lost my voice beneath your needs,

forgot my dreams so yours could breathe.

I stayed through storms you never felt,

drowned in the cards that I was dealt.

But healing starts where endings grow,

and letting go was how I rose.

The moment I stopped loving you

was when I found my truth.

(Pre-Chorus)

I bent so far I almost broke,

lost myself in every word you spoke.

But now I breathe without your fear —

I finally see my path so clear.

(Chorus)

’Cause after all those years of giving everything,

I watched my heart grow tired of the suffering.

You never saw the weight I carried in my chest —

you only took, you never cared for what was left.

And when the fire faded out, I disappeared…

I walked away, after all those years.

(Bridge)

I’m done with bleeding for someone

who never tried to understand.

I’m done with shrinking just to fit

inside the world you had planned.

I rise above the ashes of

the girl who cried in silent screams —

I’m stronger now, I’m waking up,

I’m finally living for my dreams.

(Final Chorus – bigger, emotional, empowering)

’Cause after all those years of losing every part of me,

I found the strength to break away and finally breathe.

You never saw the woman fighting just to stay —

but now I’m free, I’m walking my own way.

I’m done with pain, I’m done with all your empty fears…

I found myself, after all those years.
