It started with a sound Of echoes in the night Unknowing the battle That you would leave behind to fight We built up your castle Unknowing it was grains of sand I gave you everything But only received a strand Something lingered in the dark Your lies I didn't know The lies behind your words And the tears you left me to show You said I was your everything Now you have left me with scars But even the brightest Star cast shadows where you are You held my hand tight But then you let it go The darker the love The more pain left to show I was the fire But you burnt me whole You was never a lover Only the thief of my soul Your lies was laced With poison, the pain runs deep Each kiss a broken promise Of the lies you expected me to keep You said you would never hurt me But the truth Was hidden behind your eyes The darkness drawing in Of the love that was built on lies Now every word lingers The voice you took away to call I reached out for a hand But you left me to fall I thought I knew you You was the one I tried to save But now I'm drowning in ocean Within the lies that you gave You held my hand tight But then you let it go The darker the love The more pain left to show I was the fire But you burnt me whole You was never a lover Only the thief of my soul You told me we were forever But your love was a prison cell Bet you think your clever But the truth is mine to tell Now all I see is darkness They've taken all my light Wounds left of sharpness The battle I'm left to fight You held my hand tight But then you let it go The darker the love The more pain left to show I was the fire But you burnt me whole You was never a lover Only the thief of my soul So here I am in the remnants Of the fire that was a flame A shadow of what I was And you're the only one to blame I gave you my everything My pain my despair And now I'm left in the ashes Of a love that was never there
