Lyrics

I gave you every piece of me,
Every breath, every memory.
Held you up when you couldn't stand,
While I slipped right through your hands.
Every word I kept inside,
Every tear I tried to hide—
I wore myself down to the bone
Just to keep you from being alone.
I was pouring out my soul,
While you never filled the hole.
I gave you love with empty hands,
Hoping you would understand.
But every piece I gave away
Just left me more in pain.
I kept holding onto you,
While you let me fall right through—
And now there's nothing left of me…
Just what I used to be.
You took every light I had,
Turned the good into the bad.
And I stayed through every lie,
Just to say I didn't try.
I made space for all your pain,
Let it run through every vein.
But you never looked to see
What it did to me.
I was breaking more each day,
While you just looked away.
I gave you love with empty hands,
Hoping you would understand.
But every piece I gave away
Just left me more in pain.
I kept holding onto you,
While you let me fall right through—
And now there's nothing left of me…
Just what I used to be.
Was it love or just the fear
Of admitting you weren't here?
Was I holding onto you—
Or just what I wanted you to be?
I GAVE YOU EVERYTHING—
AND YOU GAVE ME NOTHING—
RRRRAA—TRRRAA—LEFT ME TO BLEED—
RRRAA—TRRRAA—WHAT DID YOU NEED—
I WON'T BREAK FOR YOU AGAIN—
I WON'T BLEED FOR WHAT YOU SPENT—
I gave you love with empty hands,
But now I finally understand—
Not every heart you try to save
Is meant to be the same.
I was drowning just to breathe,
Giving more than I could keep—
But now I'm taking back from you…
What I gave you too.
