[Verse 1] You played me like strings on a rusted guitar. Every word a scar, every touch went too far. Wrapped in your chains, call it love, call it fate. But it was venom you served on a silver plate. You wore me down ‘til I broke like glass. Fed off my soul, just to cover your ass. But I see through the lies, I see what you are— A hollow little leech in a faded star. [Chorus] Now I’m unburdened, I can finally breathe. You’re just a shadow that I don’t need. Cut the rope, now I’m off my knees. Your grip is gone and I feel so fuckin' free. Unburdened, no more weight. No more games, no twist of fate. You lost your hold, I’ve found my way— Risin’ high and leavin' you in flames. [Verse 2] You kept me locked in your circus act. Gaslighted truth ‘til the sky turned black. Every tear was a trophy to you. But guess what, bitch? I’m done playin’ the fool. You thought I’d crawl, thought I’d break and beg. But I’d rather burn than crawl back to that bed. You ain't a god, you ain’t even real. Just a parasite dressed in cheap appeal. [Chorus] Now I’m unburdened, I can finally breathe. You’re just a shadow that I don’t need. Cut the rope, now I’m off my knees. Your grip is gone and I feel so fucking free. Unburdened, no more weight. No more games, no twist of fate. You lost your hold, I’ve found my way— Risin’ high and leavin' you in flames. [Bridge – slow and seething] Tried to drown me, but I grew gills. Now I’m swimmin' through your shallow thrills. You thought you’d own my every breath. But I found peace in your goddamn death. [Kick back in full power] No more chains, no more guilt. No more bleeding on the edge you built. I’m reborn, I'm not the same— You’re a ghost screamin' in the rain. [Final Chorus – cathartic and brutal] Now I’m unburdened, yeah, hear me roar. Broke your curse, kicked down the door. Tasted hell, but I wanted more. Now I’m free, and you’re just war. Unburdened, I wear no shame. Fuck your love, fuck your name. I’ve shed your poison, killed your claim— I walk alone, unburdened by your flame.
