You kissed me like a promise you never meant to keep
Said my name like a secret, then buried it deep
I was glass in your hands, you were bored of the shine
Dropped me slow, watched me shatter in time
I traced your lies in my skin
Like scars I pretended were art
You called it love, I call it
A beautifully calculated start
I’m pretty when I break, don’t you think?
Crying diamonds down the sink
You made a monster out of pain
Now you flinch when you hear my name
I loved you soft, you loved me wrong
Now I bleed to my favorite song
I’m not yours, I’m not insane
Just prettier when I break
You sleep just fine, I talk to walls
Replaying every rise and fall
I kept your shadow in my bed
You kept my ghost inside your head
I tried to be gentle, I tried to behave
But you lit the match, now watch me blaze
If I’m crazy, you made me this way
So don’t act scared when I don’t look away
I’m pretty when I break, don’t you see?
All your sins look good on me
You taught me how to love in pain
Now I smile through the hurricane
You lost control, I lost my mind
But I found power in goodbye
I’m not yours, I’m not to blame
Just prettier when I break
I still know where you get weak
Still know what keeps you up for weeks
I won’t touch you, that’s the curse
Watching me heal is worse
You wanted silence, you wanted peace
Now hear my name in your sleep
I’m not coming back to save you
I’m the lesson you can’t undo
I was pretty when I broke for you
Now I’m deadly when I’m through
You made me bleed, I made it art
Turned a broken thing into a spark
I loved you deep, you loved the game
Now I rise while you stay the same
I’m not yours, I’m not the same
I was pretty…
But now I’m flame
You don’t miss me
You miss control
And I don’t belong
To you anymore
