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
