Mistake - ArlenaZara
I gave my heart, I gave my soul
Believed in love you never showed
Every word you spoke, a gentle lie
I held on tight while you said goodbye
I traced your face in every dream
Fought for a love that wasn't what it seemed
I bled in silence, I let it break
I learned too late
Loving you was my mistake
I thought our love was meant to last, but
Your shadow haunted every past
I held on when I should have run
Believing us could be as one
Loving you was my mistake
I lost myself for your sake
I gave you all but got nothing back
A love that left my heart cracked
I stayed too long, I cried too deep
Now I'm awake from the pain you keep
Loving you was my mistake, but out here
I'll learn to escape
I whispered promises to the night
Hoping somehow you'd make it right
I ignored the signs, I ignored the fear
Believing your love was sincere
But every touch came with a cost
Every kiss that left me feeling lost
I held on to a dream that died
And I'm learning to leave it behind
I thought love was meant to stay
But your love only enslaved
I'm breaking free, I'm letting go
Of the heartbreak I've come to know
Loving you was my mistake
I lost myself for your sake
I gave you all but got nothing back
A love that left my heart cracked
I stayed too long, I cried too deep
Now I'm awake from the pain you keep
Loving you was my mistake, but out here
I'll learn to escape
Maybe one day I'll forgive
Not for you, but for me
I'll rebuild the pieces you broke
And set my heart free
All of again, I'll rise above
Stronger than your lies could make
I'll remember the lesson learned
Loving you was my mistake
Loving you was my mistake
I lost myself for your sake
I gave you all but got nothing back
A love that left my heart cracked
I stayed too long, I cried too deep
Now I'm awake from the pain you keep
Loving you was my mistake, but out here
I'll finally escape
I loved
I lost
I'll survive
