sabir dk - fading light lyrics

at the start
it was a world painted in gold
i thought love was a language that everyone knows
i was wrong

i gave you my soul, an open book
you rewarded my honesty with just one look
i thought vulnerability was the way to your heart
so i showed you my weakness right from the start
i was the safe harbor, the comfort, the friend
i was the one who would love you right ’til the end
i explained every feeling, i answered each call
i was so ready to give you my all

but the more that i gave, the more you withdrew
my certainty bored you, you needed something new
i saw the light in your eyes start to fade
for a game i didn’t know was even being played

i gave you my everything, my sun and my rain!
but everything wasn’t enough to outrun the pain!
i followed the rules that they said were the truth!
and all that it cost me was all of my youth!
i gave you my everything

i wrote you the poems, you wanted a test
i became your shadow, you were unimpressed
you mistook my softness for a lack of a spine
you called my devotion a predictable line
and while i was kneeling, you walked right ahead
to the man who left all of your messages unread
’cause he was a fortress you couldn’t tear down
and i was just kneeling, waiting for a crown
the more that i chased, the faster you flew
my kindness became just a weakness to you
i saw the last fl!cker of light start to fade
for a game i didn’t know was even being played

and in the silence, i learned the code
i learned you don’t chase the heart, you chase control
i learned my kindness is forgotten, but my silence, a scar
i learned you don’t want a lover, you want a war
i wasn’t a partner, i was just a test
and my willingness was my failure

the floor is cold, the altar’s empty now
you were never meant to kneel
(everything, everything)
you were never meant to kneel
(not enough to k!ll the pain)
the floor is cold, the altar’s empty now
