Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 I used to scream, I used to fight, Every lie, every secret, kept me up at night. I felt the fire, the anger so raw, Now it’s quieter, it cuts, but I don’t claw. Your phone lights up, another message, another name, Telling her the things that should belong to me, the same. I used to break, I used to cry, Now I just watch and wonder why. Pre-Chorus I thought I’d explode, I thought I’d burn, But the edges have dulled, I’ve started to learn. It still hurts, it still stings, But it doesn’t rule me, it doesn’t pull my strings. Chorus You lie, you cheat, you pretend it’s okay, I see it all, but it fades away. The fire’s smaller, the anger’s cold, I’m hurt less now, not doing what I was told. I feel, I don’t explode, I just survive, I’m standing here, still alive. Verse 2 Every “I love you” that isn’t mine, Every pretty girl you text, every stolen line. Used to feel my heart break in two, Now I feel it dull, but it’s still true. I care less about the chaos, the games you play, I’m softer now, but I won’t stay. You’re free to lie, free to roam, I’ve learned to breathe, I’ll make my own home. Pre-Chorus I thought I’d explode, I thought I’d burn, But the edges have dulled, I’ve started to learn. It still hurts, it still stings, But it doesn’t rule me, it doesn’t pull my strings. Chorus You lie, you cheat, you pretend it’s okay, I see it all, but it fades away. The fire’s smaller, the anger’s cold, I’m hurt less now, not doing what I was told. I feel, I don’t explode, I just survive, I’m standing here, still alive. Bridge I’m not numb, I’m not blind, I just won’t let it chain my mind. I’m learning distance, I’m learning space, I’m taking back my heart, reclaiming my place. Final Chorus You lie, you cheat, you pretend it’s okay, I see it all, but it fades away. The fire’s smaller, the anger’s cold, I’m hurt less now, not doing what I was told. I feel, I don’t explode, I just survive, I’m standing here, still alive. Outro The hurt’s still there, but it’s mine to keep, I’ve found a strength in how I breathe. I won’t break, I won’t fall, I’m still standing, I’ve survived it all.
