GASLIT LOVE

I needed your love but you didn’t have any for me, Left me thirsting for rain, like I was lost at sea, Reaching out through the darkness, hoping you’d see, But your heart was a fortress, locked tight, no key. I gave you my soul, laid it bare on the line, But you turned cold, like winter without sunshine, Every word unspoken, every touch denied, Left me drowning in silence, with nowhere to hide. I needed your love, but you had none to give, So I learned to survive, to fight, to live, In the echo of absence, my spirit grew strong, From the ashes of heartbreak, I found where I belong. You were the storm that shattered my skies, But I’m the phoenix that rises, fierce and wise, Every scar a medal, every tear a song, In the symphony of pain, I finally belong. I needed your love, but you chose to walk away, Left me in shadows where hope seemed to sway, But even in darkness, a fire ignites, A beacon of courage in the coldest of nights. I carry the weight of what could’ve been, But I’m not broken, I’m more than the sin, Of needing your love that was never returned, I’m the lesson you missed, the flame that still burns. Epic is the story of falling and rising, Of heartbreak’s harsh truth and love’s disguising, Perpetual struggle, but endless fight, I’m the warrior of day, and the dreamer of night. I needed your love, but I found my own, In the depths of despair, I’ve finally grown, No longer a prisoner of what you withheld, I’m the author of fate, the cards I’ve dealt. So hear me now, in this powerful refrain, Love’s not a weakness, it’s breaking the chain, I needed your love, but I needed me more, And that’s the epic perpetuation worth fighting for Fortress, unyielding, no cracks to betray, I held all the pieces you tried to take away. I needed your love, but I found my own light, A beacon that shines through the darkest night. No longer a prisoner of what’s been before, I’m standing on strength, unbroken at the core. This fortress I built is my heart and my throne, In the silence inside, I’m finally home you tried to break me, but I’m still standing tall, Built from the ruins where you watched me fall. I needed your love, but I’m done with the lies, Now I’m the fire that burns through the skies. No chains can hold me, no walls can confine, I’m reclaiming my soul, this victory is mine. The fortress is mine — unshakable, strong, I’m writing my story, where I finally belong.
