You said forever thought it real
Shattered dreams hard to heal
Your words a mask truth concealed
Now it’s the truth I finally feel
Promises fade like the setting light
Gone like shadows swallowed by night
What we had slipping undone
Smoke and ash when the fire’s gone
Cold lies wrapped in warm disguise
Torn apart by your hollow cries
Saw the truth in someone new
Their eyes spoke what yours withdrew
A heart breaks slow like cracking stone
Left here fighting but still alone
Tore me down as you built your wall
Silent echoes I gave my all
Promises fade like the setting light
Gone like shadows swallowed by night
What we had slipping undone
Smoke and ash when the fire’s gone
Now I stand where ground is bare
Winds whisper truths I couldn’t bear
What you broke no one will mend
This is the start not the end
