I find myself holding on

To the same illusion each day

The wind removed all defenses and lies,

I watch it ripple through your clothes

Oh when did I give you the key?

Your twisted tongue’s unraveled everything

And I know I’ve got my own blame to bear

But you were loved

You, you were loved

You, you were loved

Love was not enough

But you, you were loved

I only speak with the voices

Of words you wrote on the page

Our memory like the bottom of a lake

The water rises at your name

You, you were loved

You, you were loved

Love was not enough

But you, you were loved

The silence drowns you out

It reminds me that I’m alive

And no one knows my heart like you do

But you were never mine
