When You Were Gone - NiExshadow/Walk Alone
I read your words like they were true
I saw forever in your eyes
I filled the gaps, I made excuses
I believed every lie
I thought your silence meant you cared
I thought your distance meant pain
I called it love, I called it fate
Now I'm the one to blame
I gave you all the good in me
I let my guard fall down
I built a dream on promises that never stuck around
Silly me
for loving you
Silly me
for thinking we were true
Silly me
for holding on
Silly me
when you were gone
I waited nights, I waited days
for words you never said
I held on tight to almost love
and called it what it meant
I told myself you'd come around
that you just needed time
I lost myself in maybes and crossed every line
I gave you all the good in me
I let my guard fall down
I built a dream on promises that never stuck around
Silly me
for loving you
Silly me
thinking we were true
Silly me
for holding on
Silly me
when you were gone
Silly me
Silly me
Silly me
Silly me
I knew the truth
Silly me
