You are a dove

(doo doo doo doo doo doo)

You think you know someone.

But turns out they’re fake.

when the lion is hungry.

That’s when the real ones stay.

The ones you helped, the ones you trusted.

Turn around and let you fade.

Say they care, say they miss you.

But they never cared at all.

You feed the beast, keep it satisfied, but one day it’ll eat you alive. (It will bite you)

You give your heart, but it plays a game. (They don’t care, they walk away)

In the valley of shadows, you stand alone. (Who’s got your back today?)

Nobody’s asking if you’re okay.

(doo doo doo doo doo doo)

You got their backs, but who’s got yours?

When you’re lost, when you’re breaking.

Ain’t nobody coming through.

But you get up, wipe your tears.

Learned the hard way, now it’s clear.

If they only come when it’s easy.

Then they were never really here.

You feed the beast, keep it satisfied, but one day it’ll eat you alive. (It will bite you)

You give your heart, but it plays a game. (They don’t care, they walk away)

In the valley of shadows, you stand alone. (Who’s got your back today?)

But now you see who stays, who fades.

They said they’d always be there.

But their words were just for show.

All those pretty words meant nothing, should’ve seen it comin’.

I gave too much, I gave too easy.

Never thought they’d let me drown.

But now I see, now I’m stronger.

And I don’t need them around.

You feed the beast, keep it satisfied, but one day it’ll eat you alive. (It will bite you)

You give your heart, but it plays a game. (They don’t care, they walk away)

In the valley of shadows, you stand alone. (Who’s got your back today?)

But now you see who stays, who fades.

(Ooh, ooh, yeah), (You rise again, you walk away)

(Ooh, ooh, yeah), (No one can take your fire away)

Now you’re standing on your own feet.

Left the past where it belongs.

No more waiting, no more hoping.

For the ones who did you wrong.

Had to break to see the truth.

But you’re not the one who lost.

They’re the ones who let you go.

And that’s their loss, not yours.

You feed the beast, keep it satisfied, but one day it’ll eat you alive. (It will bite you)

You give your heart, but it plays a game. (They don’t care, they walk away)

In the valley of shadows, I stand alone. (Who’s got your back today?)

But now you see who stays, who fades.

When you’re down, does anyone care?
