Lyrics

Every one of my words, not worth believing

Expressing doubt about the credibility of the speaker's words.

Every promise I kept, kept you deceiving

Highlighting a pattern of deceptive behavior, where promises were kept but led to deception.

Gave golden years that you erased. I split my heart and watched you take

Reflecting on the sacrifice of time and effort that was ultimately erased by someone else. Reference to a broken relationship.

Every drop of my soul and leave me bleeding

Metaphorically describing the emotional pain of giving everything, only to be left emotionally wounded and bleeding.

Yeah, you taught me this

Acknowledging that the painful lessons learned were imparted by the person being addressed.


True love won't be remembered

Asserting that true love, despite its intensity, might not be remembered in the end.

My regret will last forever

Because I thought you'd never

Conveying a sense of disbelief and disappointment, as the speaker expected a different outcome.


Yeah, you brought me here

Acknowledging the role of the person addressed in bringing the speaker to their current emotional state.


I was painfully true you were pretending

Contrasting the speaker's authenticity with the other person's pretense in the relationship.

You told me this was heaven then you ascended

Recalling a time when the relationship was described as heavenly, but it ended with the other person ascending or leaving.

I gave you life, now pray for death, breathed into you, you stole my breath

Expressing a sense of giving life to the other person, only to have them take the speaker's breath away metaphorically.

You told me right from the start, we started ending

Highlighting the inevitable end of the relationship, despite initial assurances.

I believed in you
