A Mistake - NiExshadow
I gave you everything I had
Every heartbeat, every prayer
Loving you was like a shadow
Always close but never there
I tried to hold your fading warmth
But you were slipping from my hands
And now I'm left with questions
I don't think I'll understand
Was I a mistake?
Just a moment you regret
Something easy to forget
A love you never meant to take
Was I a mistake?
Tell me why you had to go
Cause I'm drowning in the silence
Of the truth I'll never know
Every word you used to whisper
Still lives heavy in my chest
You said forever like you meant it
Now forever feels like death
I walk the paths we used to wander
Trying not to fall apart
But everything reminds me
How you walked away from my heart
Was I a mistake?
Just a moment you regret
Something easy to forget
A love you never meant to take
Was I a mistake?
Tell me why you had to go
Cause I'm drowning in the silence
Of the truth I'll never know
Maybe I cared too deeply
Maybe I loved you too much
But you left without a warning
Without a final touch
And now the mirror tells me
I was never enough
Was I a mistake?
Just a name you used to say
A heart you slowly walked away from
Day by day
Was I a mistake?
Cause I still ache for what we had
And the hardest part of losing you
Is believing I was never worth the chance
Loving me was just a burden
And I was only
A mistake
