Verse 1
They warned me, said he’d break me,
I swore they couldn’t see.
Told myself they didn’t know
What he really meant to me.
Four years in the silence,
Four years I looked away.
Now I’m standing in the wreckage,
And the guilt won’t wash away.
Chorus
Four years gone, and it’s all on me,
I locked the doors, I lost the key.
Believed his lies, ignored the signs,
Let him steal my life, my time.
I can’t forgive, I can’t forget,
The mirror shows my own regret.
Four years gone, and I’m the fool,
The one who broke her own damn rules.
Verse 2
Every call I thought abandoned,
Every letter never seen.
I cursed the ones who loved me most,
While he kept me in his scheme.
Now I’m scared to face their voices,
Scared to see what I became.
How do you tell your family
You chose the devil over grace?
Chorus
Four years gone, and it’s all on me,
I locked the doors, I lost the key.
Believed his lies, ignored the signs,
Let him steal my life, my time.
I can’t forgive, I can’t forget,
The mirror shows my own regret.
Four years gone, and I’m the fool,
The one who broke her own damn rules.
Bridge
Don’t say I was blind—
I saw enough to stay.
I gave my heart to fire,
And let it burn away.
Final Chorus
Four years gone, I wear the blame,
Carved his lies into my name.
I shut them out, I turned away,
Now I live with the mess I made.
I can’t forgive, I can’t let go,
This scar’s the only truth I know.
Four years gone, and I’m the fool,
The one who broke her own damn rules.
