Home was you

Home Was You [Verse 1] Two pink lines and shaking hands The future hit me all at once I was terrified, I won’t lie Didn’t know if I was strong enough You held me while I cried that night Said we’d figure it out somehow Wrapped your arms around my fears And I believed every word from your mouth I thought we’d build a little world Something safe, something true I was carrying your children And placing all my faith in you [Pre-Chorus] But love can wear a perfect mask And lies can sound like promises I didn’t know the cracks were there Until the whole thing caved in [Chorus] I trusted you You swore you’d stay Held me together when I was afraid I thought for them you’d finally change But you were already walking away You made me feel like I was home Like I could finally put my guard down Then one month after I found out You burned the whole damn house to the ground Now every memory cuts in two The man I loved, the truth I knew I lost more than a lover that day I lost the place I ran to Home was you [Verse 2] You knew every insecurity Every scar beneath my skin And somehow used them against me When I started questioning You told me I had everything Said I was imagining things Gaslit every warning bell Until I doubted what I could see Then there was that line you’d always say Like it was somehow supposed to be sweet “You were supposed to be one-eighteen… Then I caught feelings.” Now I hear it differently Like I was never really chosen Just convenient until you got bored And left my heart broken open [Pre-Chorus] You kept one foot out the whole damn time While I was planning forever And every promise that you made Was already unraveling [Chorus] I trusted you You swore you’d stay Held me together when I was afraid I thought for them you’d finally change But you were already walking away You made me feel like I was home Like I could finally put my guard down Then one month after I found out You burned the whole damn house to the ground Now every memory cuts in two The man I loved, the truth I knew I lost more than a lover that day I lost the place I ran to Home was you [Bridge] The hardest part isn’t being alone Or packing boxes, moving on It’s grieving someone who’s still alive Learning the man I loved never existed It’s carrying life while mourning love Feeling kicks beneath my skin Knowing the family I was dreaming of Was ending before it could begin And I’d still have chosen you That’s what hurts the most [Final Chorus] I trusted you And that’s the wound Not what you did But what it proved That all the nights, the plans, the dreams Meant more to me than they did to you You were my home My safe place The one person I could always face But home shouldn’t disappear overnight Home shouldn’t make you question your worth So I’ll take these broken pieces now And build something stronger from the hurt You took my trust You took our plans But you’ll never take the mother I became And someday these kids will know That when their world was falling apart I stayed. [Outro] Home was you… Until it wasn’t. And that’s the heartbreak I’ll carry forever.
