My Mistake Lyrics

Years of love, built on shifting sand

I thought I knew you, thought I had your hand

Your mask finally slipped, the truth came to light

Revealing a stranger, shattering our life

I gave you my all, every piece of me

Blind to the cracks, too in love to see

Now I'm left standing in the wreckage of us

Trying to sweep up the remnants of trust

My mistake was believing in forever

My mistake was thinking you'd never leave

Now I'm picking up the pieces of my heart

Learning how to breathe, learning how to grieve

It's my mistake, I'll own it

But baby, you're the one who threw it all away

Now I've got to let go, it's my only way

To survive this betrayal, my mistake

Memories haunt me, ghosts of what we were

Your touch still lingers, but it's all a blur

I'm rewriting history, erasing your name

From the story of my life, it's not the same

I'm letting go of the dreams we shared

The future we planned, the life we prepared

It hurts like hell, but I'll make it through

'Cause staying would be the bigger mistake to do

My mistake was believing in forever

My mistake was thinking you'd never leave

Now I'm picking up the pieces of my heart

Learning how to breathe, learning how to grieve

It's my mistake, I'll own it

But baby, you're the one who threw it all away

Now I've got to let go, it's my only way

To survive this betrayal, my mistake

I'm shedding the weight of our broken dreams

Emerging stronger than I've ever been

My mistake was you, but the victory's mine

As I leave you behind and step into my prime
