[Verse 1]
You swore your words like armor,
But I saw right through the steel.
You kissed me with silence,
And promised what you’d never feel.
I danced inside your shadow,
Hoping you’d pull me through.
But even in the firelight,
You never saw the truth.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And I held on to the thunder,
While you ran from the rain…
Now I see the truth in color,
Not in shades of pain.
⸻
[Chorus]
I burned the lies you gave,
Set the echoes in me free—
Watched our love go up in flames,
Like smoke lost on the sea.
I broke the chain you wore,
I don’t need your false reform.
Now I rise from all the pain—
Like ashes in the storm.
⸻
[Verse 2]
You whispered sweet illusions,
Built a kingdom made of glass.
But every wall you built around me
Shattered like the past.
You left me in the silence,
But I found my voice again.
And now the tears you never noticed
Turn to fire in the end.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And I stood inside the silence,
While your love became a ghost…
Now I’m not the one that’s drowning—
You’re the one who lost.
⸻
[Chorus]
I burned the lies you gave,
Set the echoes in me free—
Watched our love go up in flames,
Like smoke lost on the sea.
I broke the chain you wore,
I don’t need your false reform.
Now I rise from all the pain—
Like ashes in the storm.
⸻
[Bridge]
You tried to break me, bend me, leave me blind,
But I found the light you’ll never find.
You lost a heart that truly stayed—
And I found power in the grey.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
I burned the lies you gave…
Set the echoes in me free…
Watched our love go up in flames—
Like smoke lost on the sea…
Now I rise from all the pain—
Like ashes… in the storm.
