Testi

I gave it honest
Every time
Didn't keep score
Guess that was mine
I was the one they called when the night got heavy
Carried their weight like it never cost me
Held every secret, buried it steady
Smiled like it never crossed me
Gave 'em my time, my trust, my energy
Never once asked what it meant to me
They took the light, left the shell of me
Still I said that's just empathy
Funny how loyalty don't echo back
You give your all, they just take like that
No hesitation, no second glance
You end up full of empty hands
I kept giving till there was nothing left
No space in my chest, just an outline
Every I got you I ever said
Turned into silence on their side
I was real in a world that pretends
That's a game where the truth don't win
So I stood there with open hands
While they closed theirs in
I learned the patterns, it's all the same
Different faces but the same exchange
You give 'em heart, they give you blame
Then act surprised when you walk away
They love the version of you that bends
The one that breaks just to make amends
Soon as you stand, that's where it ends
Guess that's the cost of being genuine
Now I see clear what I couldn't then
Love ain't love if it's one-way spent
Every promise just paper thin
Cut so deep when it's wearing skin
Was it me
Did I give too much
Or did they just take what I never protected
Forget everybody that needed me whole
But only showed up when I carried their soul
For every I'm here that vanished in smoke
I gave 'em my heart, they handed me ghosts
For every moment I bled for the wrong ones
Every excuse I made just to hold 'em
I was breaking just to keep 'em together
Now I see I was better alone
Now it's quiet
And I can breathe
No more reaching
They can't take from me
I was never empty
I was just pouring out
All that I needed
Was already mine
I don't need saving
I don't need friends
Just needed distance
To see where I end
