Mistake

Lyrics: You say it like it’s nothing, like it doesn’t stay But I carry every word you throw my way You turn love into something sharp and cold Then act like I’m supposed to let it go You said I was a mistake, said you regret me too Like I’m just something you outgrew Now I’m sitting in silence with a phone in my hand Trying to understand what I don’t understand I stay quiet so it doesn’t break more But it already broke something before Was it really me, or was it the rage Did I become a stranger when we got engaged You say it like truth when you’re angry and loud But I’m still the same girl standing here now And I don’t know how to hold this weight When “I love you” turns into “you’re a mistake” Was it real or just words in the air ‘Cause I still showed up, I still care Next morning silence, no touch, no glance Like we both forgot we were in the same dance You look right through me like I’m not there But I still made your coffee like I still care You ask if I’m coming, like I’m the one gone But I’m just tired of being spoken on Like I’m disposable, like I’m replaceable Like love turns cruel when it’s unstable I don’t want distance, I don’t want war I just don’t want words that cut anymore If you’re overwhelmed, then say it true Don’t turn your anger into who I am to you Was it really me, or was it the rage Did I become a stranger when we got engaged You say it like truth when you’re angry and loud But I’m still the same girl standing here now And I don’t know how to hold this weight When “I love you” turns into “you’re a mistake” Was it real or just words in the air ‘Cause I still showed up, I still care Was it really me, or was it the pain Why do your softest moments come after the rain I’m still right here but I feel out of place When “I chose you” turns into “I made a mistake”
