Amarte Era Perderme

Sons of Ashes

Loving You Was Losing Me

I gave you all, left nothing behind
Put your dreams before mine
Tried to shrink so you could shine
Called it love, but I crossed the line
Loving you was losing me
Piece by piece, too blind to see
I disappeared to keep you whole
Traded my heart to feed your soul

I don't hate you, but now I see
Loving you was losing me
I wore your silence like perfume
Filled every crack to give you room
You never asked but I still gave
Built my worth in being brave
Loving you was losing me
Like drowning slow, too proud to flee

I held on, hoping love would grow
But roots don't thrive when there's no soil below
I don't blame you, but I had to leave
Loving you was losing me
Sometimes love means letting go
Even if it's the last thing you know
Loving you was losing me
And now I fight to just be free

I'm learning now to stand alone
To find the pieces I've outgrown
I still miss you, but I believe
Loving you was losing me

Amarte Era Perderme

Te di todo, no dejé nada atrás
Puse tus sueños antes que los míos
Intenté encogerme para que brillaras
Lo llamé amor, pero crucé la línea
Amarte era perderme
Pieza por pieza, demasiado ciego para ver
Desaparecí para mantenerte entero
Intercambié mi corazón para alimentar tu alma

No te odio, pero ahora lo veo
Amarte era perderme
Llevé tu silencio como perfume
Llené cada grieta para darte espacio
Nunca preguntaste, pero aún así di
Construí mi valor siendo valiente
Amarte era perderme
Como ahogarse lento, demasiado orgulloso para huir

Me aferré, esperando que el amor creciera
Pero las raíces no prosperan sin tierra abajo
No te culpo, pero tuve que irme
Amarte era perderme
A veces el amor significa soltar
Incluso si es lo último que sabes
Amarte era perderme
Y ahora lucho por ser libre

Estoy aprendiendo a estar solo
A encontrar las piezas que he superado
Aún te extraño, pero creo
Amarte era perderme
