No One Left To Save

Bleeding Verse

I gave you every version of me even the ones I swore I'd never show
You watched me fracture quietly then ask why I was hollow
I wore your guilt like a second skin, tried to bleed it out in every line
But the more I screamed for clarity, the more you blurred the signs

I was your mirror, cracked and fading
You loved me most when I was breaking
I'm not your mother, not your cure
Not the voice you silence to feel pure
I burned down trying to be brave
Now there's no one left to save
You want the ashes not the flame
But I won't die just to stay tame
You called it love, I called it war
Every hug a hidden score

I stitched your name into my spine
Now I can't stand without the lie
I beg for space, you gave me chains
Said healing meant enduring pain
But I'm not your canvas, not your muse
I'm the wreckage you refused
I build a shrine from every scar
Lit it up like a dying star
You prayed for peace, I prayed for air
But you were never really there

I'm not your mother, not your cure
Not the voice you silence to feel pure
I burned down trying to be brave
Now there's no one left to save
You want the ashes not the flame
But I won't die just to stay tame
I won't die just to stay tame
