You Became

I gave it my all but you were too haunted, Now it's too late too late, I gave you all, but you were locked in your pain, Drowning in shadows, lost in the rain, Loved you my way, but you shut me out, Heart full of echoes, screaming loud, You never saw the fire burn inside, Now you realize when I'm not by your side, You changed too late, time was gone, By then, my heart was already stone, Already stone You became the queen I dreamed about, the day I had to leave Did it for him, for the life we need to give, But every night these memories bleed, Tears keep falling, I can't breathe, I can't breathe Had to pick between my blood and love, Life ain't fair, when push comes to shove, Tore me apart, ripped out my soul, But I took the weight, I took control, You'll never feel the pain I hide, Never see the tears that dried, Blamed myself so you could heal, But deep inside, you know it's real, You know it's real You became the queen I dreamed about, the day I had to leave, Did it for him, for the life we need to give, But every night these memories bleed, Tears keep falling, I can't breathe, Sacrifice is love in disguise, But it kills you deep inside, Now I live with this weight on my mind, Like I wasn't lost enough inside, You loved me the day I walked away, Now I move forward, cursed with that fate, Maybe in time, I'll see the light, But today, I still fight,
