Not What It Seemed Lyrics

Thought you were the answer, the one I could trust

Built up a dreamhouse, but it crumbled to dust

You said forever, but forever was a lie

Now I'm picking up the pieces of the love you left to die

Every word you said, it cuts me like a blade

Now I see the truth in the mess we made

This isn't what I thought it'd be

You were my world, but you're just debris

You tore me down, left me on the floor

And I don't know who you are anymore

You're not what you seemed, not what you seemed

Tried to hold it together, but the cracks were too wide

Saw the warning signs, but I pushed them aside

You were my anchor, now you're pulling me down

I'm done drowning in the lies where I thought I'd never drown

Every promise burned, like paper in the flames

Now I'm done believing your stupid games

This isn't what I thought it'd be

You were my world, but you're just debris

You tore me down, left me on the floor

And I don't know who you are anymore

You're not what you seemed, not what you seemed

I gave you all my trust, you gave me reasons to doubt

All the dreams we built, you just burned them out

I'm screaming into the void, but I'll find my voice

Breaking free of this chaos, I've got no choice

This isn't what I thought it'd be

You were my world, but you're just debris

You tore me down, left me on the floor

And I don't know who you are anymore

You're not what you seemed, not what you seemed

I'm stronger now, I've let you go

This broken heart won't stay hollow

You're not what you seemed, no, you're not what you seemed

And now I'm finally free
