Just an option

(Verse 1)

I gave you my heart, laid it all on the line,

Thought you were the one, my forever, my sign.

But you turned your back, like it was nothing at all,

Now I’m picking up pieces from this crumbling wall.

(Pre-Chorus)

You had me believing, I was your number one,

But I was just a whisper, in the shadow of your sun.

I waited for a moment, hoped you’d finally see,

But you were too busy, never cared about me.

(Chorus)

So I’m walking away, I won’t be your fool,

Never make someone a priority, when I’m just an option to you.

I’m more than a fallback, more than a game,

I’m taking my heart back, you won’t feel the same.

No more late-night texts, or tears on the floor,

I’m done being second, I’m ready for more.

(Verse 2)

You played your cards right, thought I wouldn’t know,

But every time you chose them, I felt my spirit low.

You took all my love and you threw it away,

But I’m rising up now, I’m reclaiming my day.

(Pre-Chorus)

You had me believing, I was your only choice,

But now I see the truth, I’ve found my own voice.

You thought you could keep me, wrapped around your lies,

But I’m breaking these chains, I’m cutting all ties.

(Chorus)

So I’m walking away, I won’t be your fool,

Never make someone a priority, when I’m just an option to you.

I’m more than a fallback, more than a game,

I’m taking my heart back, you won’t feel the same.

No more late-night texts, or tears on the floor,

I’m done being second, I’m ready for more.

(Bridge)

I’ll rise from the ashes, I’ll find my own light,

No longer a pawn in your selfish fight.

I’m stronger than ever, I’m learning to fly,

You’ll see me soar high, while you wonder why.

(Chorus)

So I’m walking away, I won’t be your fool,

Never make someone a priority, when I’m just an option to you.

I’m more than a fallback, more than a game,

I’m taking my heart back, you won’t feel the same.

No more late-night texts, or tears on the floor,

I’m done being second, I’m ready for more.

(Outro)

So here’s my goodbye, I’m closing the door,

I’ll cherish my worth, I’ll love me much more.

You’ll be just a memory, a lesson I learned,

Never make someone a priority, when all you are is an option.
