Verse 1 Thought I was in control, held the message tight Unloaded everything, felt I had nothing to lose that night Gave when I could, pulled back slow, played it cool Truth is I was arrogant, ignorant — thinking I ruled Chorus This breakup tore love apart, a façade from the start A bullet dodged, even if it feels like a gunshot wound right now The ground you’re scared of losing? It’s still solid under your feet You’re the one who walked away That’s the real control — you’re free Verse 2 I invested what felt like eternity Poured out my heart, gave my soul, love untold You stood beside me through every painful turn Every dark chapter, every lesson burned Chorus This breakup tore love apart, a façade from the start A bullet dodged, even if it feels like a gunshot wound right now The ground you’re scared of losing? It’s still solid under your feet You’re the one who walked away That’s the real control — you’re free Bridge I believed we had something real, something true But you were faking it the whole damn year through Waiting for your ticket on a train to nowhere fast Left me at the station with my luggage and the past Was it ever love? The truth stays untold… Final Chorus This breakup tore love apart — it was never what it seemed A bullet dodged in the dark, waking me from the dream The ground I thought I’d lose? It’s stronger now beneath my feet I’m the one who walked away I took back control — complete Yeah, I walked away… And that’s the real victory Outro Echoes of a year gone cold… Luggage left, truth untold… I walked… I walked… Bullet dodged… gunshot faded… I’m still standing…
