Verse 1 I used to see you shining on a silver screen An astronaut chasing a distant dream Even the leader of a crowded state I placed you so high, I sealed my own fate Blind faith running straight through my veins Never thought a crown could bring so much pain Verse 2 I would have handed you the keys to my chest Entrusted my life, put my world to the test Locked up my vault and given you the code Never doubted a single step on this road But the spotlight faded, the curtains fell low And the grand illusion put on its final show Chorus But in the end, you were just like the rest Self-centered heart beating inside your chest Disloyal, cold, under your cheap disguise Leaving me here with a thousand goodbyes Yeah, you broke the promise, you tore it apart Just another shadow trading with my heart Verse 3 But through the smoke, my vision is clear The rain has washed away every single fear I finally see what I'm truly worth I walk away from your hollow earth I deserve a soul who stands through the storm A loyal shadow keeping my spirit warm Bridge No more pedestals, no more blind belief I'm turning the page on this bitter grief I deserve someone who mirrors my mind Someone as faithful as the truth I find You were just an actor playing a part But I am the author rebuilding my heart Chorus But in the end, you were just like the rest Self-centered heart beating inside your chest Disloyal, cold, under your cheap disguise Leaving me here with a thousand goodbyes Yeah, you broke the promise, you tore it apart Just another shadow trading with my heart Outro Just like the rest... But I deserve the best. Loyal and true. And it’ll never be you.
