I always stayed at your side

I did everything I could

Gave you my all

And in return this

A deep forbidden pain

A sinking in my chest 

I’ve lost trust 

In it all 

Because of you

I gave you all of me 

And I got non back 

I am building myself on a stronger foundation 

Trusting  no one 

Letting no one in

Dig yourself into a hole of isolation 

Because they don't deserve you 

The more I repeat this in my head

 The less I believe it 

I crave the people I've lost

Ready to break myself all over again for them 

Why can't I be someone’s everything 

I give it all 

I would give my dignity for you 

My confidence 

Now there is nothing left

You’ve stolen my heart 

Crushed my possibilities of happiness

I won't let you break me
