(Verse 1) I heard the saying since I was young... "Only look down to help someone." So I reached a hand into the dirt, Just trying to mend another's hurt. They always say it's the noble thing to do, To never turn away from you. I reached down, my guard was low... But you just wouldn't let me go. [Pre-Chorus - Strings softly enter, building tension] And my empathy became the chain, That kept me tangled in your pain. [Chorus - Massive vocal breakout, powerful piano chords, cinematic strings] Oh, it’s crazy how two rights can make a wrong! I tried to help, but you just strung me along. I did the right thing reaching out my hand, But you took that right to take more than I can stand! When kindness turns to weakness in your eyes... The only right thing left... is my goodbye. (Verse 2 - Low rhythm begins, keeping the slow heartbeat tempo) You took my grip but wouldn't stand. You wanted me to be your legs, your hands. I thought I was your stepping stone, But you just weighed me to the bone. I held my ground, I tried to fight, But you just pulled harder out of spite. [Chorus - Full emotional intensity, powerful soulful belting] Oh, it’s crazy how two rights can make a wrong! I tried to help, but you just strung me along. I did the right thing reaching out my hand, But you took that right to take more than I can stand! When kindness turns to weakness in your eyes... The only right thing left... is my goodbye. [Bridge - Music drops out to just a raw, emotional piano and voice, building to a climax] I shouldn't have to break myself to make you whole! I shouldn't have to sacrifice my soul! I look down now... but not to pull you near. I see the trap, I see it crystal clear! [Vocal Belt] I’m taking back the grace that you abused! [Chorus - Maximum energy, dramatic orchestral finish] Yeah, it’s crazy how two rights can make a wrong! I tried to help, but you strung me along. I did the right thing reaching out my hand, You took that right to take more than I can stand. When kindness turns to weakness in your eyes... The only right thing left... is my goodbye. [Outro - Music fades back to just a quiet piano, voice becomes a soft whisper] So I’ll just smile. Look up to the sky. And walk away. I'll walk away... You've gotta find your own feet today. I'm walking away.
