Verse 1
You walked in like you knew best
Like I owed you my breath
Turned my kindness into weakness
Called it love, called it “help”
You had a way of rewriting
Every truth I tried to say
Left me doubting my reflection
Just to keep yourself okay
Pre-Chorus
You never raised your voice
You didn’t have to
You knew silence was louder
Chorus
You were a bad person in my life
Dressed up as something good
You took the parts of me that trusted
And used them like you would
You don’t get to blame the damage
On my heart for breaking down
I survived you, I’m still standing
You don’t get to stay now
Verse 2
You fed on my forgiveness
Like it was an endless well
Every sorry felt rehearsed
Every promise rang like hell
You loved control more than connection
Loved being right more than being real
And I kept shrinking just to fit
Inside the space you’d let me feel
Pre-Chorus
You called it “being honest”
I call it cruelty
Chorus
You were a bad person in my life
With a beautiful disguise
You held the knife and played the victim
Every time I cried
You don’t get to rewrite history
Or say I’m too sensitive now
I survived you, I’m still standing
You don’t get to stay now
Bridge
Maybe you’ll tell a different story
Where I’m the villain in your mind
But healing taught me one thing clearly
Not every loss is a crime
Some people teach you what love isn’t
So you finally learn your worth
Final Chorus
You were a bad person in my life
And that truth set me free
I stopped begging for your approval
Started choosing me
You don’t get to haunt my future
Just because you knew my past
I survived you, I’m still standing
And this goodbye will be my last
Outro
I don’t hate you, I don’t pray
I just finally walked away
You were a lesson, not a home
And I’m better on my own
