You said you'd love me

Lyrics

You said you’d love me, darling, told me to believe But in the shadows, you were fading, chasing your relief Late nights in your world of screens, of games and smoke While I was burning slowly, my heart a fragile cloak I whispered all my secrets, you laughed at my despair Your eyes were elsewhere, baby, I felt you weren’t there You left me in my darkness, when I needed light Replaced my fragile heart with your careless flight I was drowning in my sorrow, you just walked away Oh, darling, I loved you, but you couldn’t stay Your little worlds, your tiny thrills, they always came first The dispensary, the console glow, I swallowed my thirst I tried to be your angel, I tried to be your flame But you were gone before the morning, leaving only blame I whispered all my secrets, you laughed at my despair Your eyes were elsewhere, baby, I felt you weren’t there You left me in my darkness, when I needed light Replaced my fragile heart with your careless flight I was drowning in my sorrow, you just walked away Oh, darling, I loved you, but you couldn’t stay I see the ghost of you in every song I play A bittersweet addiction that won’t fade away I cried in empty rooms, you never heard my plea But I’m still standing, baby, even without you and me You left me in my darkness, when I needed light Replaced my fragile heart with your careless flight I was drowning in my sorrow, you just walked away Oh, darling, I loved you, but you couldn’t stay
