Verse 1
I loved you with my whole chest
Like I didn’t need it back
Ignored the quiet warnings
Every red flag dressed as “facts”
I stayed when I felt lonely
Even laying next to you
Gave you grace I never gave myself
Just to prove my love was true
Pre-Chorus
I kept choosing you in silence
While you chose convenience
I kept bleeding into effort
You kept calling it my weakness
Chorus
I gave you everything I had
Every soft place, every scar
Still you wanted more from me
While giving less of who you are
You held me close when it was easy
Let me go when I needed you
I was breaking just to keep you whole
And it still wasn’t enough for you
Verse 2
I watched you keep your options
Like safety nets in place
Said you loved me, but your actions
Never stayed in the same space
I made room for your confusion
While mine swallowed me alive
I kept shrinking my expectations
So you wouldn’t have to try
Pre-Chorus
I begged for honesty, you called it pressure
Asked for clarity, you pulled away
Funny how I was too much to handle
But never enough to stay
Chorus
I gave you everything I had
Every soft place, every scar
Still you wanted more from me
While giving less of who you are
You fed on my forgiveness
While I starved for something true
I was losing myself loving you
And you still wanted more from me
Bridge (voice cracks, minimal music)
I loved you like I was disposable
Like my heart was infinite
You loved me like I was optional
Like commitment was a threat
If I sound tired, it’s because I am
I carried us both too long
I mistook endurance for devotion
And silence for being strong
Break (whispered / background vocals)
I gave… I gave…
And you took… and took…
Final Chorus
I gave you everything I had
And I don’t recognize myself
I poured from an empty place
Trying to keep you from leaving
But love shouldn’t feel like this
Like I have to disappear
To be chosen, to be wanted
To be kept
Outro
So I’m leaving with what’s left of me
Even if it’s just my name
I hope you find what you were looking for
While I learn how to love myself again
