Intro I was already broken when I found you Looking for love, looking for home But some people don’t heal the damage They become part of it Verse 1 I was damaged goods, I knew that from the start Carried old scars like chains around my heart I wanted love, I wanted peace, wanted something real Wanted someone safe who wouldn’t teach me pain to feel But rumours started moving like smoke in the air Names I didn’t know kept appearing everywhere Caught you texting other guys, same old excuse Same fake tears, same twisted truth And I stayed, yeah I hate that I stayed But when you’re scared to be alone, even prison feels safe I was begging for love while you destroyed me Putting you first while you made me last choice Pre-Chorus I gave you loyalty You gave me doubt I was fighting for us While you were checking out Chorus I was your last choice But you were my whole life I gave you my future You cut me like a knife I was at war outside You made one at home I was bleeding for tomorrow While you left me alone You almost broke me But I still have a voice I’m not your damage anymore I’m not your last choice Verse 2 I was deployed in Iraq, boots in the sand Trying to make it back alive, trying to be a man Fighting for our future under warzone skies While you hid your secrets behind pretty lies Do you know what that does to a mind already cracked? Watching my front while getting stabbed in the back Every message I found was another grenade Every lie you told was another scar made Anxiety screaming, chest getting tight Checking for truth in the middle of the night And I hated myself for needing proof When deep down I already knew the truth Pre-Chorus I gave you loyalty You gave me shame I carried your betrayal Like it had my name Chorus I was your last choice But you were my whole life I gave you my future You cut me like a knife I was at war outside You made one at home I was bleeding for tomorrow While you left me alone You almost broke me But I still have a voice I’m not your damage anymore I’m not your last choice Bridge Back of the line, that’s where I learned to stand Everyone before me, heart in my hands Never truly loved, never fully seen Just useful enough when you needed me But I see it now, I see it clear Love shouldn’t feel like panic and fear Love shouldn’t make you question your worth Or make a home feel colder than dirt I am not the rumours I am not the lies I am not the broken look You left inside my eyes I am not your backup I am not your noise I am not your damage I am not your last choice Final Chorus I was your last choice But you were my whole life I gave you my future You cut me like a knife I was at war outside You made one at home I was bleeding for tomorrow While you left me alone You almost broke me But I still have a voice I’m not your damage anymore I’m not your last choice I’m rebuilding from the wreckage I’m becoming my own voice I was never hard to love I was just your last choice Outro I stayed because I was broken I rise because I’m healing I’m not your last choice anymore
