Lyrics

Loyalty Over Love

I walk these halls, shadows whisper your name,
Cold nights alone, but the hurt stays the same.
I gave you my heart, you tore it in two,
Now I’m left with the pieces, and none belong to you.

You swore you loved me, but love ain’t enough,
Words turn to dust when they’re spoken too much.
Loyalty’s heavy, but love is so light,
You let go easy, while I held on tight.

I’d rather have loyalty than love,
Love don’t mean a thing when it’s not backed up.
You said you’d stay, but you walked away,
Love is a ghost that don’t beg to stay.

I still hear the echoes, the lies in your voice,
Said you were lost, like you didn’t have a choice.
But love ain’t a reason, love ain’t a cause,
You broke what we had, and I’m the one lost.

I’d rather have loyalty than love,
Love don’t mean a thing when push comes to shove.
You took what you needed, then left me behind,
Love is a debt that I won’t repay this time.

The mirror don’t lie, it shows what remains,
A man who was whole, now just a name.
No fire inside, just smoke in my chest,
Loyalty’s real, but you failed that test.

So I’ll walk these roads, no path leads me back,
Love is a memory, loyalty’s what I lack.
I won’t say your name, won’t curse, won’t cry,
But the man you once knew is buried inside.
