A poignant song capturing the painful experience of being unjustly discarded after years of togetherness, expressing feelings of betrayal, heartbreak, and the struggle to move on when love turns into lies and abandonment.
Verse 1:
In the silence of the night, I felt you turn away,
Years of laughter, dreams we built, all faded to decay.
You packed your bags, left me here, like trash upon the street,
And now I’m left to wander, with memories incomplete.
Chorus:
How could you throw me away?
After all we built, you chose to stray,
With lies you painted me a villain,
While I was keeping love alive, you were chillin'.
Verse 2:
You made your choice, didn't look back, left a heart in disrepair,
You left our house but I made it home, a place I thought we’d share.
But now I see the truth unfold, like shadows in the dark,
You never reached out, never cared, just left a bitter mark.
Chorus:
How could you throw me away?
After all we built, you chose to stray,
With lies you painted me a villain,
While I was keeping love alive, you were chillin'.
Bridge:
Friends turned to strangers, secrets turned to pain,
You whispered sweet nothings that turned to disdain.
A love like a river, instead turned to stone,
Left in the echoes of a love overthrown.
Chorus:
How could you throw me away?
After all we built, you chose to stray,
With lies you painted me a villain,
While I was keeping love alive, you were chillin'.
Outro:
Now I stand here, broken and torn,
In a house that’s just a shell, where I once felt warm.
And as the sunlight fades, I’ll learn to let go,
But a part of me will always ache, that’s the price of love’s woe.

Getting kicked out of our home and discarded by someone like trash and broken up with after being together many years, then never apologizing or reaching out at all after as if I meant nothing to you and I didnt deserve it. Told lies about me to friends and family to make it seem justified. We had a house but I made it a home.
