Lyrics

I knew sometimes I felt alone
And that alone made me fold in ways I shouldn't have
I gave my time to half-formed souls
Where love should live, I settled for the aftermath
I danced a fool's dance when I let you in
Just afraid I might not feel again
Every other word you said was bitter
Every conversation circling you
You never saw a damn thing through
And when I was low, I carried us both
While you laid there, in love with the floor
You were a pretty face, nothing more
You'd ghost me just to come back crawling
Each time another boy let you down
And I'd pretend it didn't bother me
While you drained me just to wear the crown
I kept showing up, breaking my own spine
You fed on comfort like it was a crime
Every other word you said was bitter
Every moment bending to your blues
You never tried, just blamed the bruise
And when I was low, I carried us both
While you wallowed, romanticized your war
You were an enticing lie, nothing more
You spoke in one-liners, no weight, no grace
Told me you were just tired, like that explained your face
Of course it was always a bad day again
Like joy was something that only happened to them
I was a fool
But I'm not anymore
You can kick rocks, babe
I closed that door
Every word you spoke just emptied the room
And I let it, till I saw the truth
Now I don't chase what cuts me loose
When I was low, I carried us both
But I don't break for your ego anymore
You were a pretty face
But I've learned to want more
You know what's funny
You always said you hated drama
But somehow you were always the one who brought it
You wanted a safety net
Not a person
You wanted praise
Not connection
And for a while, I gave it
God, I gave it like it meant something
But I'm done
Not mad
Just done
Go text someone else
When your little situationship collapses again
I'm not the clean-up crew anymore
