It wasn’t the mistakes or the other girls. Not the quick lies or the messy swirls.
It was the habits you wouldn’t change The way you’d give then take like it’s no big thing.
It was the neglect you dressed up as care The weight of love you just wouldn’t share.
The way you’d hurt then act like it’s fine While I picked up the pieces one at a time.
Deceit lived in your eyes like a guest Carelessness turned every hello into a goodbye test.
The nights I cried till my chest felt tight Hands shaking fighting to make it through the night.
You thought I’d stay no matter the pain That love meant I’d stay locked in your chain.
And you were right for way too long Seven years proving you weren’t wrong.
But now I’m gone not cause I want to be But cause you let love die so carelessly.
You thought my heart could bounce back forever But even love’s patience doesn’t last forever.
So here’s the truth I hope you get Staying didn’t mean I’d stay with no regret.
And yeah I wish it wasn’t like this But walking away was the only choice left.

This hits different. I stayed and put in twice the effort. I can't say I'm thankful for all of it tho. They really think we’ll always be, but there’s that day the day we wipe away the last of the tears and let ourselves have that final ugly cry. Then we tell our heart to chill and just do what we gotta do.
This hits different. It really cuts deep. Lost my gf cause I got too comfortable and didn’t fix my bad habits in time. She didn’t communicate much but I should've seen it coming.
I don't know if I'll ever forgive myself for losing someone like her. Someone I love with everything I have. I always treated her right but I wasn’t the partner she deserved..
