Empty Lies

I thought we had something special, something true But now I see it was all just a game to you I'm left with memories that won't fade away But I'm ready to move on, to face a brand new day Do you notice when I'm not around? Do you feel my absence, does it bring you down? I hope someday you'll realize That I was worth more than your empty lies The nights are long, and the silence grows I'm haunted by the ghost of what we chose But deep inside, I know I'll be alright I'll find my strength, I'll step into the light I gave you my heart, I gave you my all But you turned your back and watched me fall Now I'm standing tall, ready to break free From the chains of your love that suffocated me Do you notice when I'm not around? Do you feel my absence, does it bring you down? I hope someday you'll realize That I was worth more than your empty lies (hey) I thought we had something special, something true But now I see it was all just a game to you (I'm left with memories that won't fade away But I'm ready to move on, to face a brand new day) Do you notice when I'm not around? Do you feel my absence, does it bring you down? I hope someday you'll realize That I was worth more than your empty lies I won't let your memory hold me back I'll find the courage to fill the cracks I'll rebuild my world, piece by piece And find a love that brings me peace Do you notice when I'm not around? Do you feel my absence, does it bring you down? I hope someday you'll realize That I was worth more than your empty lies I'm moving on, leaving you behind I'll find my voice, and this heart will shine You may not notice, but I'll be fine This is my goodbye, my love, bye I'm sitting here, my mind a maze Lost in thoughts of you, ablaze Caught in the echoes of our last embrace But it's clear to me (it's not clear to me), You've left no trace Wipe that stupid smile off your face Do you notice when I'm not around? Do you feel my absence, does it bring you down? I hope someday you'll realize That I was worth more than your empty lies The nights are long, and the silence grows I'm haunted by the ghost of what we chose But deep inside, I know I'll be alright I'll find my strength, I'll step into the light I gave you my heart, I gave you my all But you turned your back and watched me fall Now I'm standing tall, ready to break free From the chains of your love that suffocated me Do you notice when I'm not around? Do you feel my absence, does it bring you down? I hope someday you'll realize That I was worth more than your empty lies (hey) I'm sitting here, my mind a maze Lost in thoughts of you, ablaze Caught in the echoes of our last embrace But it's clear to me (it's not clear to me), You've left no trace Wipe that stupid smile off your face Do you notice when I'm not around?
