Chaos In My Mind

Silent Goodbye

I know you deserve a heart that won’t break,
But I’m a hollow promise, a mistake.
I never pretended, never played a part,
Yet somehow I still break your heart.

I feel like my heart's shattered, aching,
What you made me feel, almost gone, breaking.
You held me close, like I was yours to keep,
But inside, I knew I was not what you seek.

You deserve a love that makes you whole,
But all I am is a fractured soul.
I wish I could hold you, just like before,
But the lie in my heart aches even more.

Even when you noticed, I was the poison in your blood,
it still was hard, to give me up.
You chased the high of not being alone,
but I know, you're better off on your own.

I wish I could be the one who stays,
But I’m the shadow that darkens your days.
I see the hope die slowly in your eyes,
And it kills me, knowing I’m the reason your love dies.

You said you’ll never find someone like me,
And that truth alone brings me to my knees.
How do I walk away, when you believe that lie?
How could I ever say goodbye?

I know you’ll find someone better, someday,
Who can love you in all the ways I can't.
And still I hurt, I ache, feel low,
Why does it feel like heartbreak, letting you go?
