I let you think that you were ahead
I hid my motives from you
I let you run with my heart in your hands

I curse the day I trusted you

I let you run with my heart in your hands
I curse the day I trusted you

You locked me away
I made my escape anyway

By your hands we watched our kingdom fall
But I won't be the one to take back the throne
Rising above you I watched you grow
And I won't be the one left standing after the fall

I let you think you had me for yourself
I hid from you my love for someone else
You aren't my friend and a part of my future
So you can watch me as I seduce her
Pick it up!

I can see it in your eyes you were looking for a light and it's not there
You were burying your pride and you're giving up your life and it's not fair
You can see that I'm away and you're begging me to stay but I don't care
Now I see that you're alone and you're crying on the phone but I made it clear

You locked me away
I made my escape anyway

By your hands we watched our kingdom fall
But I won't be the one to take back the throne
Rising above you I watched you grow
And I won't be the one left standing after the fall

I can see it in your eyes you were looking for a light and it's not there
You were burying your pride and you're giving up your life and it's not fair

Life's not fair
