Lyrics

I waited in silence…
While you learned how to let me go.
I gave you every piece of me
Until my hands were empty
Built a home inside your storms
While mine collapsed behind me
You said love meant sacrifice
So i swallowed every warning
Spent my nights holding your ghosts
While mine kept me from sleeping
And i can't count
How many times i bled to keep you breathing
While you watched me drown
Like my suffering had no meaning
Tell me why
Every wound you carry matters more than mine
Why i disappear
Every single time you cry
I waited for years
Just to watch you choose yourself again
I broke my back carrying us
While you called it love instead
And i swear to God
I'm dying inside your silence
Why do only your feelings matter
While mine are met with violence?
You took every part of me
Now there's nothing left to save
I gave you my whole life
And you gave me a grave
I learned to speak in apologies
Even when i wasn't wrong
Learned how to cut out pieces of myself
Just to help you carry on
You held my heart like a hostage
Then blamed me for the chains
Every time i tried to leave
You pulled me back with pain
So tell me—
Was i ever someone you loved?
Or just a body built
To absorb what you became?
I'm so sick
Of dying for your peace
While you rip the air
Right out of me
I gave you years
I gave you blood
I gave you everything
You called it love
But love doesn't leave someone empty
Love doesn't make you disappear
So why the hell
Was i the only one
Sacrificing here?!
Maybe i stayed
Because losing you felt worse
Than losing myself
But now i look in the mirror
And i don't know who survived.
I waited for years
For a version of you that never came
Set myself on fire for warmth
While you stood there in the flames
Now the smoke fills my lungs
And i finally understand
You only loved me
As long as i could withstand
All the weight
All the blame
All the damage you denied
But i can't keep bleeding out
Just to keep you alive.
So here's the truth…
I mattered too.
