Broken

We were good, we were steady, we were right,
Didn't see the storm coming that night.
You said you were leaving, no reason at all,
Left me standing here watching you fall.
You said it was you, not the love that I gave.
But how can I fix what I didn’t break?
All those years just faded away,
Like the promises you threw away.
Chorus
Was I just a chapter in your broken story?
While you were living a lie, I was living in glory.
You said you regret every step that we took,
But you never saw how deep you shook
Me to the core, left me wondering why,
You walked away while I lived your lie.
Verse 2:
You told me to get over it, I’d be fine,
But healing don’t come with time on the line.
I never knew the hurt that you hid,
While I held on to everything we did.
Now your words echo in the quiet of this place,
But I’ll wear my strength like a suit of grace.
You can regret the life that we built,
But I won’t carry your weight, or your guilt.
Was I just a chapter in your broken story?
While you were living a lie, I was living in glory.
You said you regret every step that we took,
But you never saw how deep you shook
Me to the core, left me wondering why,
You walked away while I lived your lie.
Instrumental
Bridge:
I’ll find my way, I’ll heal in time,
Your regrets don’t define what's mine.
I wasn’t a fool, just gave you my best,
Now I’ll move on, put your ghost to rest.
Was I just a chapter in your broken story?
While you were living a lie, I was living in glory.
You said you regret every step that we took,
But you never saw how deep you shook
Me to the core, left me wondering why,
You walked away while I lived your  lie.
Outro
I’ll carry on, I’ll find my light,
While you live your truth, I’ll make things right.
You can regret,  but I'll no longer cry
'Cause I stopped living in your lie.
I stopped living in your lie.
