I was there when your world felt thin

Held the weight of the life you lived in

Kept it warm while you froze me out

Fed your tribe while you checked out

Watched you crumble, watched you rage

Watched you trapped in your self-built cage

I stayed loyal while you played pretend

You loved the help, never loved the friend

I poured out grace and you sucked it dry

Taking every drop and I never asked why

You have a mask for every crowd you chase

Switching who you are just to match the room's taste

Talking trash behind all their backs

You drip venom behind your act

You call it connection but you pulled my strings

Turned love into leverage and a heart into wreckage

You kept me close

Like a backup plan

But when I needed you

You turned and ran

You only keep people

When they're bleeding for you

Left me drowning in the dark

While you rewrote the truth

I'm cutting out the ghost you made, your voice is static anyway

You can choke on all the games you play, I'm burning every memory

Loyal to your own reflection

Hiding behind deflection

Self love turned to self deception

Every word a misdirection

I held you up

You let me crash

You burned the bridge

Then blamed the ash

Traced the failure back to the root you hid

All your sweet little fictions, all the damage you did

Drug my name through the dirt then called it space

Talked behind my back then smile at my face

Loaded every moment with guilt and blame

But you never owned your own shame

You used my kindness like a tool on call

Took my strength, you drained it all

You loved my weakness

More than my strength

And I stretched myself thin

Just to hold your weight

I tried keeping peace, you performed a war

I stayed steady, you were the storm

Your world left you - I stayed by your side

You used my heart as fuel for your pride

You only felt close when you had control

But you don't get to hold my soul

I carried your world

You let mine fall

I was there for you

You weren't there at all

Said you'd show up but you never did

You turned silence into punishment

You drain the ones that love you

Then you put them on a shelf

What would it look like to love anyone but yourself

You love the chaos cause it makes you feel strong

But you blame everyone else when it all goes wrong

Loyal to your own reflection

Hiding behind deflection

Self love turned to self deception

Every word a misdirection

I held you up

You let me crash

You burned the bridge

Then blamed the ash

I loved you like my blood but you drained me dry

You wanted a puppet, not a true ally

You wore my loyalty like a prize you won

You kept me in the shadows while you shone in the sun

You craved my devotion but you hated my needs

You called it friendship but it fed your greed

I was the realest thing in the world you fake

Keep shining that reflection - it'll cut you when it breaks

Loyal to your own reflection

Hiding behind deflection

Self-love turned to self-deception

Every word a misdirection

I held you up

You let me crash

You burned the bridge

Then blamed the ash

I won't fold

I won't fall

You don't get my life at all

Your name's just noise

Your face is dust

I'm done mistaking fear for trust
