“Never Again”
Heartbreakers, Album No. 3, 2019

(Verse 1)
I never promised you forever,
Never wrapped my words in gold.
I didn’t paint us with illusion,
Didn’t let the story be told.
You thought you'd be my only,
But I left the truth unsaid.
You assumed we'd be unbroken,
But you forgot the path we tread.
(Verse 2)
Every word you spoke, a dagger,
A whisper wrapped in disguise.
Every touch became a weapon,
A bitter spark behind your eyes.
The love we had was fleeting,
A fire that burned too bright.
Now I stand among the ashes,
In the stillness of the night."*
(Pre-Chorus)
And now the shadows close in tight,
Every step, a fading light.
Promises made, promises bent,
But now I know just what they meant.
(Chorus)
I'm not gonna stay your friend,
I’m never gonna love you again.
Your lies, they cut right through me,
Left me shattered, left me empty.
I didn’t say I wouldn’t bring the gun,
Didn’t swear you’d be the only one.
All that’s left is broken pride,
And all I do is cry.
(Bridge)
Every tear’s a silent story,
Of trust betrayed and fleeting glory.
But here I stand, battle-scarred,
Knowing love, knowing it's hard.
You played your hand, the cruelest game,
Now I won’t look back, won’t take the blame.
(Chorus)
I'm not gonna stay your friend,
I’m never gonna love you again.
Your lies, they cut right through me,
Left me shattered, left me empty.
I didn’t say I wouldn’t bring the gun,
Didn’t swear you’d be the only one.
All that’s left is broken pride,
And all I do is cry.
(Outro)
Never again will I fall so deep,
Never again will I let you make me weep.
What we were, now left behind,
In the ruins of a love so blind.
Never again—never again will you be mine.
