[Verse 1]
I remember the night the world turned black,
One whispered lie and there was no way back.
A thousand promises shattered on the floor,
The woman I loved was someone I knew no more.
Every picture burns behind my eyes,
Every memory poisoned by disguise.
The ghost of your touch still haunts my skin,
A war I never chose, but somehow trapped within.
[Pre-Chorus]
Now every smile feels like a loaded gun,
Every “I love you” sounds like another one.
[Chorus]
You left me drowning in an ocean of doubt,
Tore my heart open and hollowed me out.
Now I see shadows in every woman’s eyes,
Searching for betrayal behind every disguise.
I never knew pain could cut this deep,
Or follow a man into his sleep.
You broke more than a vow that night…
You murdered my trust and buried the light.
⸻
[Verse 2]
Panic attacks in the middle of the dark,
Cold sweat racing through a shattered heart.
Breathing feels like climbing broken glass,
While the echoes of your treason never pass.
Depression wraps around me like chains,
Turning every sunrise into endless rain.
Some days I fight just to leave my bed,
Some nights I wish I could silence my head.
[Pre-Chorus]
The scars you left were never on my skin,
They live inside the places no one sees within.
[Chorus]
You left me drowning in an ocean of doubt,
Tore my heart open and hollowed me out.
Now I see shadows in every woman’s eyes,
Searching for betrayal behind every disguise.
I never knew pain could cut this deep,
Or follow a man into his sleep.
You broke more than a vow that night…
You murdered my trust and buried the light.
⸻
[Bridge]
But I refuse to die inside this grave,
Refuse to be the prisoner that you made.
I’ll face the demons screaming in my head,
Stand before the ghosts I thought were dead.
One step forward, one breath at a time,
Learning that survival is its own kind of fight.
The fear still lives here, I won’t pretend,
But fear is no longer where my story ends.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
You left me drowning in an ocean of doubt,
But I found the strength to climb back out.
The wounds remain, and the scars still show,
Yet they’re proof of the hell that I survived below.
I may never trust the way I did before,
Some doors once broken can’t be restored.
But I won’t let your betrayal define my name,
I walked through the fire and rose through the flames.
⸻
[Outro]
The panic fades…
The darkness bends…
The broken man learns to breathe again.
And though the ashes of trust still stain my hands,
I’ll keep walking forward…
Until I can love again.
