If you really knew

If you really cared about me in the first place why did you talk behind my back
If you really gave me a chance to share my life with you why did you disappear
If you really wanted me to fold that’s why you held your cards of betrayal so close
If you really knew how much you took from me, I think it would overwhelm you

Now that you’ve left me, I can begin to live
Now that you’ve left me, I can experience new things
Now that you’ve left me, I can see the light that was never there before
Now that you’ve crushed me, I will be the flower who grows in the rubble

If you wanted someone to use and abuse
If you wanted to keep me,
I chose to escape the situation that you had me in
I chose to not let you hurt me anymore

I don’t know how you could be so callous
I don’t know how you could be so oblivious to the sirens going off around you
I saw the red flags, but I made the mistake to ignore them for a while
I didn’t see love in your heart, because you always chose to hide
