[Intro]
Take a breath, let it out, time to face the truth
Seven years in shadows, endless wait for proof
I built a world around you, thought you’d understand
But all those dreams, they crumbled, slipped right through my hands
[Verse 1]
You looked so good on paper, the man they’d all applaud
But love is hidden deeper, in the silence of the flawed
I never got a say, just a passenger in this ride
Making choices for your heart, while mine was pushed aside
[Pre-Chorus]
I played the role of comfort, in a script that wasn’t mine
Your dog had all your heart, I was waiting for a sign
When did I become the backdrop in your picture-perfect scene?
[Chorus]
Oh, how I wasted time, on a love that wasn’t real
Thought I could change your mind, but you never learned to feel
Now I see the light, breaking through the heavy dark
You lost a faithful love, oh it’s you who missed the ma[Intro]

You lost a faithful love, oh it’s you who missed the mark
[Verse 2]
My kindness ran for miles, while your heart stayed in retreat
I knew the taste of lonely, every night I faced defeat
You were a king in your castle, but I was just a queen
Standing in your shadow, where love should've always been
[Pre-Chorus]
I imagined us as partners, walking side by side
But you chose your independence, while I kept my heart tied
Thought I would be enough, but the throne was all you sought
[Chorus]
Oh, how I wasted time, on a love that wasn’t real
Thought I could change your mind, but you never learned to feel
Now I see the light, breaking through the heavy dark
You lost a faithful love, oh it’s you who missed the mark
[Bridge]
I’m tearing down the walls, I’m reclaiming all my days ̵
You can keep your picture, I’ll rewrite my own ways
And though I held you close, and sacrificed my peace
This chapter’s finally closing, my heart will find release
[Outro]
So here’s to better loves, to choices that are mine
I finally found my voice, and it feels so divine
You’ll remember what you lost, when the silence starts to break
But know that I’ve moved on, this was my chance to wake
