(Verse 1)
So many years, a tapestry of ghosts
Missed memories, the ones I loved the most
Moments unborn, dreams that never flew
All because, I foolishly loved you
(Verse 2)
Your love, a currency you freely spend
Charming hearts, a game that knows no end
You change your lover, a careless, swift exchange
Oblivious to the pain, the damage, and the range
(Verse 3)
I learned to lean, on no one but myself
Then you appeared, a tempting, whispered spell
You promised comfort, a shoulder I could find
But what, oh what, did you leave behind?
(Verse 4)
You let me fall, a silent, cruel decree
No hand outstretched, no attempt to rescue me
Down, down I tumbled, faster and more deep
Crashing to my knees, where sorrows softly weep
(Verse 5)
When I needed you, your words were hollow lies
Promises whispered, that faded in my eyes
You broke your word, a shattering, sharp blow
Crushing my trust, a heart laid waste and low
So selfish, driven by your own desire
A burning lust, consuming like a fire
(Verse 6)
Time and again, I opened up the door
Hoping for change, a love I craved before
I tried to keep you distant, at arm's length you see
But you'd always find the crack, and weaken me
(Verse 7)
But not this time! The tide is turning now
A new day dawns, I make a solemn vow
A different song, a rhythm strong and true
I'm taking back the future, me and only me and you
(Verse 8)
I'm reclaiming pieces of my broken heart
A brand new start, a brand new work of art
I changed the locks, the door to my own soul
I'm stronger now, I'm taking back control
More than a whisper, more than just a name
Once I said forever, now I shout in shame
(Verse 9)
Nevermore! You've lost me, finally, at last
Stranded in my mind, a shadow of the past
Too many times, you left me in despair
Now I'm building a life, without you anywhere.
