Now I can see much clearer
You're pretty on the outside but inside, you were all full of lies
And now all this has died
I never saw the real you
I never even knew the truth
Was it a big deal and was it even real?
How do you think I feel?
Did I even mean a thing to you?
I never hear from you anymore
I've been cut off
Did you ever think of me?
I'm trapped, please set me free
I never hear from you anymore
I've been cut off
My heart is buried in the dirt
Nothing more can make me hurt
Your face in the distance, the bane of my existence
The pain is consistent
What do I even do?
Every road leads me back to you
There's darkness, there's no light and you fucked up my life
Can't get you out my sight
I'm waiting for something new
Did I even mean a thing to you?
I never hear from you anymore
I've been cut off
Did you ever think of me?
I'm trapped, please set me free
I never hear from you anymore
I've been cut off
We both know
You didn't want me anymore
The flame is out
You didn't care and now I'm all alone.
I'm waiting for something new
Did I even mean a thing to you?
I never hear from you anymore
I've been cut off
Did you ever think of me?
I'm trapped, please set me free
I never hear from you anymore
I've been cut off

My reflection in the mirror
Looking at myself, I am confronted with the sad reality of what our relationship was
Now I can see much clearer
With time, distance and perspective, I can see how wrong things were between us
You're pretty on the outside but inside, you were all full of lies
You presented yourself as something you were not, a beautiful façade hiding a dishonest and ugly reality
And now all this has died
Our relationship has ended, there is nothing left here worth saving
I never saw the real you
You deceived me, and I never got to know the true you
I never even knew the truth
You kept so much hidden from me, in hindsight, I realize how naïve I was
Was it a big deal and was it even real?
I question what our relationship really meant, did it even matter to you?
How do you think I feel?
You hurt me, and I am struggling to come to terms with it
I'm waiting for something new
I am ready to move on and start a new chapter in my life
Did I even mean a thing to you?
I wonder if what we had was just a game to you, if you ever truly cared for me
I never hear from you anymore
You have cut me out of your life completely, and I am left with nothing but silence
I've been cut off
You have severed all ties with me, and I am left alone to deal with my pain
Did you ever think of me?
I wonder if you ever spare a thought for me, or if I have been completely forgotten
I'm trapped, please set me free
I feel like I am in a prison, and I need you to release me from this pain
My heart is buried in the dirt
You have broken my heart so badly that it feels like it has been buried and forgotten
Nothing more can make me hurt
I have experienced so much pain that nothing can hurt me any worse
Your face in the distance, the bane of my existence
I am haunted by your memory, tormented by the thought of what could have been
The pain is consistent
The pain I feel is always present, a constant reminder of what was lost
What do I even do?
I am lost and confused, unsure of how to move on from this heartbreak
Every road leads me back to you
No matter how hard I try to escape the past, you are always there, lurking in the back of my mind
There's darkness, there's no light and you fucked up my life
You have left me in a place of darkness, with no hope or light to guide me, and you are to blame
Can't get you out my sight
You are always on my mind, no matter how hard I try to forget about you
We both know
There is no point in denying the truth, we both know what really happened
You didn't want me anymore
You lost interest in me, and our relationship lost its spark
The flame is out
The passion and love we once shared has faded away, replaced by emptiness and pain
You didn't care and now I'm all alone.
You didn't care about me or what we had, and now I am left to deal with the aftermath by myself
