You Ruined Us - ArlenaZara

A title carries a heavy

undeniable finality

You Ruined Us moves past the sadness and places the accountability exactly where it belongs

It is about acknowledging that a beautiful shared life was completely destroyed by one person's selfish choices

Here are the complete lyrics for You Ruined Us

I kept the words simple, raw, and direct

The structure gives a female vocalist the perfect pacing to start with a quiet, reflecting sorrow before building into a powerful, angry, and heartbreaking belt in the chorus for a three-minute emotional ballad

You and us

We used to be the couple everyone adored

Now our memories are scattered on the floor

You held my hand and promised me the moon

But the darkness came around way too soon

I look at the life that we built up so high

And watch it all fall down right from the sky

You ruined us

You tore it all down

You burned our beautiful castle to the ground

I gave you my heart and a love you could trust

But you turned our forever to ashes and dust

There is nothing left to save

Nothing to discuss

Because you ruined us

You thought you could hide all the secrets you kept

While I was just lying beside you and wept

You traded my loyalty for cheap little thrill

And left me here broken and perfectly still

You shattered the mirror and broke all the glass

And left me alone in the shadows that passed

How do you live with the choices you made

Watching the best thing you ever had fade

You can't put the pieces back how they were before

I'm leaving my ring on the table by the door

Cause you ruined us

You tore it all down

You burned our beautiful castle to the ground

I gave you my heart and a love you could trust

But you turned our forever to ashes and dust

There is nothing left to save

Nothing to discuss

Because you ruined us

You ruined it all

There is no going back

The screen is fading to black

I am finally walking away

You ruined us
