Lyrics

Lightning on the windows, colors on the floor
You held the storm back that night like you never did before
Funny how a lightning strike tricks a kid into belief
'Cause that was the first time you protected me
I grew up holding that memory like it meant something real
Maybe it was or was it a promise to be unfulfilled
You wore the hero mask so well, I never saw the cracks
Until you let it fall apart and never looked back
The day you burned the bridge, I stood there in the smoke
Ashes hitting my skin from every promise you ever broke
You walked away like my heartbreak was just a chore
But guess what? I'm stronger now than I have ever been before
Yeah, you lit the match and didn't even flinch
You watched the flames rise high... and I didn't move an inch
Twenty-five and shaking, trying not to fade
I needed someone steady, but you chose to walk away
I was fighting for my life while you were busy prioritizing yours
Told yourself I wasn't your problem
As if love has an expiration limit
You could've stepped in close... but you didn't
Pain turned into anger, anger melted into truth
You never fought for me the way I once fought for you
You should have nurtured what we had, but you saved that all for you
That façade fooled the child... but my older eyes see through it
The day you burned the bridge, I stood there in the smoke
Ashes hitting my skin from every promise you ever broke
You walked away like my heartbreak was just a chore
But guess what? I'm stronger now than I have ever been before
Yeah, you lit the match and didn't even care
You watched the flames climb high
Breathing in the truth of despair
Did you ever think I'd miss you?
Did it cross your mind at all?
Did you wonder if I'd rise, or did you hope that I would fall?
Years of silence taught me what your love was worth
Either you never loved me
Or you found it easy to desert
Either way, I rebuilt myself from that soot and dirt
So here's your update
I made it
I healed
I learned
I'm not a broken thing you left me to be
You abandoned
Yeah you abandoned me in every time of need
And somehow
I still came out more loyal than you were to me
The day you burned the bridge, I stopped begging you to stay
Let the flames light up the truth you kept trying to push away
I'm standing on the other side, stronger than before
Your ashes blew toward me
And I swept them off the floor
If losing you was survival, then know, I survived
You burned the bridge
But I'm the one who's still alive
Go ahead and call it healing
Call it closure, call it done
You walked out like I was nothing
But look who's the resilient one
