Lyrics

We used to talk for hours, every secret, every fear,
You were always in my corner, always steady, always near.
But lately there's a distance, something cold behind your eyes,
Like you're listening to voices that are feeding you their lies.

You're moving in the shadows, making choices I can't read,
Acting in the name of others, though it cuts where I still bleed.
I reach out for the person that I thought I used to know,
But the friend I trusted deeply is a stranger now, it shows.

(Chorus)
How did you turn so suddenly, how did we fall apart?
I never thought I'd see the day you'd break a loyal heart.
If you're fighting for another side, then tell me where we stand --
'Cause I can't trust the person who once held my open hand.

We built a world together, full of laughter, full of plans,
Now I'm standing in the ruins trying hard to understand.
Was it something I had missed, or did the change come overnight?
Either way, I'm left here wondering why you gave up on the fight.

(Bridge)
I don't know if we can fix this, or if time can heal the break,
But I'd meet you in the middle if you owned your past mistakes.
Still, I can't rebuild a future on a truth that isn't shared --
So if you want redemption, you must show me that you care.

(Chorus)
How did you turn so suddenly, how did we fall apart?
I never thought I'd see the day you'd break a loyal heart.
If you're fighting for another side, then tell me where we stand --
'Cause I can't trust the person who once held my open hand.

Maybe someday you'll remember all the things we used to be,
And the bond we once protected might return in memory.
But until the day you show me that the old you still remains,
I'll be guarding what is left of me from all these fresh-cut pains.
