[Intro]
[Verse]
He lit the match
I became the fire
He pulled the trigger
Yet I'm the one to blame
Words like a dagger
With his twisted desire
To let you doubt yourself,
and all that you became
[Build-up pre-chorus]
He paints me the villain in this story I wish stayed unwritten! hmmm...
Faster than the echoes of it haunted me,
he pulled the trigger!
His lies twisted so fast, that I could never see around the bend!
I know that deep down he'd be proud, if he knew my pain didn't end... [pause]
With us
[Intense powerful chorus]
[Shouted singing]
[Intensity build-up]
Did you think, did you think that I'm lonely?!
That I'd run, that I'd run into your arms again..?
Finally now, finally now I see you for who you are
Did you think, did you think that you broke me?!
Beyond compare, beyond repair, do you hate me?
Knowing that I will never love you ever again... [pause]
[Break]
[Verse]
He'd break me down
Then played the victim
He always made me cry
Just to pull me near...
Never more afraid
Looking into the mirror
I had to leave to,
finally see these things more clear
[Build-up pre-chorus]
He dressed me in rags and said I Iooked like all he ever wanted... hmmm..
He asked me to change - and when I didn't he said
"Don't you love me?"
He took all that made me like me, 'till I didn't recognize myself
Will I ever lose the person I became just to survive this hell...[pause]
I've lived
[Intense powerful chorus]
[Shouted singing]
[Intensity build-up]
Did you think, did you think that I'm lonely?!
That I'd run, that I'd run into your arms again..?
Finally now, finally now I see you for who you are
Did you think, did you think that you broke me?!
Beyond compare, beyond repair, do you hate me?
Knowing that I will never love you ever again... [pause]
[Bridge]
[Shouted singing]
'Cause I remember every little thing!
And the way you made me doubt it all
Nothing will ever make me forget
So you may never pick me up again... after I fall....
[Final chorus]
Did you think, did you think that I'm lonely?!
That I'd run, that I'd run into your arms again..?
Finally now, finally now I see you for who you are [pause]
Did you think, did you think THAT YOU BROKE ME?!
Beyond compare, beyond repair, do you hate me?
Knowing that I will never love you ever again... [pause]
[Outro]
I kept replaying his words,
Hoping that somehow they'd change
but each time they destroyed me all over again
