You cling to what is safe and known, While I reach out for something more. This love became a hollow home, A cage I cannot live in anymore.
They warned me I would outgrow you, That you'd be frozen in the past. They said I'd learn to love myself, And break the chains that held me fast.
I feel the distance growing wide, A chasm neither one can close. You drained me dry, I fed your needs, Now all that’s left is bitter ghosts.
You cling to what is safe and known, While I reach out for something more. This love became a hollow home, A cage I cannot live in anymore.
I thought that we were meant to last, Unshaken, strong, a perfect pair. But you stand still while I run fast, And now there’s nothing left to share.
Our hearts once moved in harmony, But now they beat in severed time. You never saw the scars you left, Or how you slowly bled me dry.
We’ll keep the echoes, soft and sweet, The laughter tangled with the pain. But whispers call me from the deep, A voice that speaks my own dark name.
You cling to what is safe and known, While I reach out for something more. This love became a hollow home, A cage I cannot live in anymore.
So I will walk into the night, No longer bound, no longer torn. I’ll find the fire, lost inside, And rise again—reborn.
