you gave me the sky

you gave me a flower,
you gave me the sky
whatever you gave,
you said it was mine
but the feelings you shared
showed another sign
when you flipped your switch
and gave your attention away
i knew the things you claimed
were lies
it was written in your eyes
that your love wasn't mine
you gave me a flower,
you gave me the sky
you told me the world
belonged to you and i
what throne belongs to you now?
without me by your side
you lack the strength to stand
the people see your weakness
if only you took the chance,
you'd still get to see this
you had the chance,
you had my heart and mind
what a mistake you made
to leave it all behind
