MUSIC FOR SALE

I’m done
I had a last hope burning in my heart,
You put it out, you destroyed it.
Letting down your own is a special art,
And the main tool in your skill kit.

I’m so tired, finally worn out,
Torn into pieces I cannot fix.
Every word you said I now doubt,
You never loved me — now it finally clicks…

I wish you knew what you’ve broken in me,
I wish you knew you were my world.
Love is gone and finally I’m set free,
Everything is smoke, everything blurred.

You never realized how hard it was,
Keeping this love from falling apart.
I tried everything, but it was a lost cause,
My heart has crashed, my life needs a restart.

It will hurt — it already does, and there will be more,
But nothing compares to what I went through with you.
For you, I was just a game, just one more score,
No wishes were heard, no dreams came true.

Love can kill, love destroys when not shared,
I never knew I could become this weak.
At last it’s done — every moment feels spared,
Solitude is the only peace I seek.
