~ ALWAYS THE OPTION ~

Verse 1

I gave you pieces of a fragile heart

Stayed through the storms, held you in the dark

But when the night fell heavy on me

There was no one, no one to see

Pre-Chorus

I’m the voice you call when the silence hurts

The hand you hold when the world deserts

But when I’m falling, I can’t pretend

No one’s around to catch me then

Chorus

I’m always the option, never the choice

Fading away behind your voice

Lonely in love, left out in the rain

Carrying hope but drowning in pain

I’m always there, but no one can see

Who’s ever there for me?

Verse 2

You held my love like a borrowed flame

Used what you needed, then left the same

I stayed behind while you walked ahead

I sleep alone in a half-made bed

Pre-Chorus

Every promise I believed in vain

Every smile couldn’t hide the pain

I stand in crowds, but I disappear

Wishing someone would hold me near

Chorus

I’m always the option, never the choice

Fading away behind your voice

Lonely in love, left out in the rain

Carrying hope but drowning in pain

I’m always there, but no one can see

Who’s ever there for me?

Bridge

I’m tired of bleeding for empty hands

Tired of love I don’t understand

I gave my soul, but it’s clear to me

I was never your destiny

Final Chorus

I’m always the option, never the choice

Fading away without a voice

Lonely in love, forgotten again

Caught in a cycle that never ends

I’m always there, but I can’t compete

Who’s ever there for me?
