Verse 1:
You said forever, you said we'd be fine,
But the truth came out, it was a matter of time.
Thought you were my ride or die, my partner in crime,
But now I'm left here, lost in my mind.
Chorus:
You lied to me, you broke my heart,
Thought you were my world, we were never apart.
You painted a picture, said love was real,
But the canvas was just a mask, nothing to feel.
Verse 2:
I gave you my all, I put you first,
But your promises turned out to be a curse.
Each sweet word was just a game you played,
Now I'm standing here, feeling betrayed.
Chorus:
You lied to me, you broke my heart,
Thought you were my world, we were never apart.
You painted a picture, said love was real,
But the canvas was just a mask, nothing to feel.
Bridge:
Now I'm picking up the pieces, trying to mend,
Every little moment, just a means to an end.
You wanted my love, but you took my trust,
Now I'm left with shadows, and memories that rust.
Chorus:
You lied to me, you broke my heart,
Thought you were my world, we were never apart.
You painted a picture, said love was real,
But the canvas was just a mask, nothing to feel.
Outro:
You lied to me, but now I see,
I’ll find my way, I’ll be free.
No more shadows, no more chains,
I’ll rise above and heal these pains.
