LYRICS
You had a way of making me feel small
Built the walls so high I missed the fall
Told myself that love meant holding on
But I was just a pawn in your con
Played my fears like a melody
Every note just a trick up your sleeve
I gave my heart gave my trust gave it all
You lit the match and watched it fall
Now the smoke is clearing I can see
Wasn’t love it was make believe
Every moment every word just a scene
You wrote the script but I broke free
You left a wake left a mess
Left the ones who loved you less
Took and took ‘til there was nothing left
Now you’re just a name I don’t confess
No more chains no more weight
Not a scar not a trace
I don’t grieve I don’t break
You’re just someone I escaped
My kids don’t even say your name
Two years gone you’re still to blame
Left ‘em reaching out to empty air
Like you were never even there
Played my fears like a melody
Every note just a trick up your sleeve
I gave my heart gave my trust gave it all
You lit the match and watched it fall
Now the smoke is clearing I can see
Wasn’t love it was make believe
Every moment every word just a scene
You wrote the script but I broke free
You left a wake left a mess
Left the ones who loved you less
Took and took ‘til there was nothing left
Now you’re just a name I don’t confess
No more chains no more weight
Not a scar not a trace
I don’t grieve I don’t break
You’re just someone I escaped
No dull ache no slow burn
No regret just lessons learned
No more questions no more doubt
I know exactly who you are now
You left a wake left a mess
Left the ones who loved you less
Took and took ‘til there was nothing left
Now you’re just a name I don’t confess
No more chains no more weight
Not a scar not a trace
I don’t grieve I don’t break
You’re just someone I escaped
You had a way of making me feel small
But now you’re nothing nothing at all
