[verse]

My heart for you was pure

Crystalline in its devotion

Each beat resonates with love so complete

Yet you let me down

Returning to her, the one you always said was no longer a part of your life

[Chorus]

You promised me worlds of wonder

Beautiful words that danced like fireflies

In the twilight of our dreams

But everything was just an illusion

A mirage shimmering in the desert heat

When the fantasy faded

And reality came crashing down

I was left abandoned

Alone in the emptiness of your betrayal

The echoes of your voice

Now haunt the corridors of my mind

Promises broken like shattered glass

Cutting deep into the soul

[Verse 2]

I was pure I was complete

Yet you went back to her

Leaving me to sift through the ashes

Of what once was In the end

The illusion disappeared

And I was left In the desolate silence

Of your absence.

[Chorus]
