Numb in Your Shadow

Remember when we first met, the city lights, your silhouette

Soft whispers, endless nights, I never dreamed I’d regret

Fell too fast, too deep, caught up in the rush

Loving blindly, ignoring signs, in your venomous hush

Every promise, every touch, I gave my all

Now I’m trapped, in your web, feeling so small

You accuse me in your blindness, threats echoing in my mind

Loving you was my only crime, but I was blind to find

You twisted my affection, turned my love into a fight

Now I’m losing myself in the shadows of the night

Toxic love, it’s killing me slow, I was a fool to believe

Obsessed with staying close, though you make me grieve

Caught in your maze, exhausted and strained

Loving you’s a prison I can’t escape from again

Money spent, tears shed, nights I can't forget

You push, you pull, my heart’s a cigarette

Burnt out from the fire, yet I stayed even when it hurt

Too much, too fast, now I feel the dirt

You accuse me in your blindness, threats echoing in my mind

Loving you was my only crime, but I was blind to find

You twisted my affection, turned my love into a fight

Now I’m losing myself in the shadows of the night

Toxic love, it’s killing me slow, I was a fool to believe

Obsessed with staying close, though you make me grieve

Caught in your maze, exhausted and strained

Loving you’s a prison I can’t escape from again

Mental breakdown, I’m breaking down, tears mix with my pain

Fighting to stay sane in this hurricane

Numb to the accusations, I’ve drained all I can give

Learning to let go, just trying to survive this love

Now I stand in silence, broken, but free

Numb acceptance is all I see

Love turned to ash, I walk away and breathe

Finding myself again, finally free
