[Verse 1]
You walked in like a promise
Sunday smile, shaky hands
I laid all my cards on the table
You were already making other plans
I learned all of your silence
Read your texts ten thousand times
Thought the edge was just a shadow
Never saw the warning signs
[Chorus]
I was fighting for love, I was blind, I was foolish
Thought it meant something, thought this road would never bend
I kept holding on tight to the hurt, to the almost
But I was holding nothing in the end
Yeah I was holding nothing, just pretend
[Verse 2]
We were talking about forever
You were packing up your past
I was praying for a future
You were learning how to leave fast
Every night I built a castle
Out of maybes, out of lies
You just watched it as it crumbled
Didn’t even say goodbye
[Chorus]
I was fighting for love, I was blind, I was foolish
Thought it meant something, thought this road would never bend
I kept holding on tight to the hurt, to the almost
But I was holding nothing in the end
Yeah I was holding nothing in the end
